SWCHS [Southwest Christian High School] launches high-altitude balloon: “Operation: Starburst”
“The students in my Earth & Space Science class have been learning about the atmosphere, basic meteorology, and what high-altitude balloon research entails. Some of our labs have introduced students to following & predicting jet stream patterns, ground wind speeds, temperature gradients, and flight predictors. We have watched videos of HAB research & launches and run some flight predictions of our own every class for the past few weeks.” – Southwest Christian High School, March 3, 2023
