Near Space from Mathew Roberts on Vimeo.


A while back I posted on a scientifically inclined family from New York who did something like this, and now a team of what appear to be college students have again accomplished an amature flight so high (33 km) that they are nearly in space. The best part about all this is the demonstration that a little knowledge, a scandalously small amount of money, and a modicum of gumption can accomplish something really amazing.  Well done, Englishmen and women!
