Our future fortunately lies in the hands of people like this.
Thanks for posting. My dad is an old HAM radio operator and would love to see this video.

Great footage for the next time a flat earth believer shows up and a great proof of concept. Their next plan is what is really exciting to me though; use GPS on a remote control glider to bring the camera back on autopilot until it reacquires the remote control signal to be manually landed right back where it took off from. This project is well done but simple in principle and a repetition of things done before (and personally I think it's a stretch to call that altitude the "edge of space" when the internationally designated line for space is much higher, but that's just me). Nothing wrong with that, but the next step they're planning is truly innovative.

Awesome stuff. So peaceful up there. S&F.


I've seen a few of these videos now. I hope more and more come out with better and better equipment, really giving us a great show.

Neat.
The ground..sky...ground...sky...ground...sky action made me kind of seasick though.

That was so awesome. Thank you so much. S&F.

If anyone wants to see the trajectory of it, I found a Google Earth KML file:

I don't know Canada too well, but from what I can make of it, it was launched from or near Edmonton, Alberta and came to a rest 100 miles to the east.

Purely awesome!

I wish I could safely fall from that height to Earth. That was so awesome to watch.

It's amazing that they got that level of quality for so little money.

Absolutely excellent. I doubt if you could do anything like this in the UK. It would land in the sea, or France, God Forbid!!

Doesn't anyone else wonder why the government can't give us some crumbs like this of all the cool test and experiments they have going on with NASA and the air-force????

Just amazing what private enterprise has and can do on Peanuts compared to the GAZILLIONS of dollars they spend for less results??

Makes me sick to think what this little flight would have cost the tax payers.

Wait a minute. There aren't any stars. This has to be fake!

Very cool.


I have built and launched several Estes type rockets and have considered building one and installing a cheap digital camcorder in it for a birds eye view, but this is so much cooler.
