KSat Stuttgart | The Flight of BUBBLE 1 @KSatStuttgart | Uploaded April 2019 | Updated October 2024, 47 minutes ago.
KSat's first stratospheric balloon project BUBBLE 1 lifted of from the University of Stuttgart at 15:40 CET on the 22nd of January 2019. It reached a maximum altitude of 34.7 km before safely descending under its parachute back to the ground. It was then recovered by our chase teams.
BUBBLE (BUoyancy Balloon Bus Lifted Experiments) provides a platform for different payloads to fly to the stratosphere. BUBBLE 1 carried a payload from the University of Stuttgart's Institute of Space Systems (IRS), measuring the brightness of the sky at different altitudes. These measurements could later be used to calibrate balloon based telescopes for the project ESBO.
