All systems are operating as they should!  We already received lots of data and still 1.5 hour left till gondola cut-down and descent phase.

• Temperature outside -68°C
• Altitude 27.4 km
• Ground speed 70 km/h

One hour until launch! Fingers crossed! Take a look at esrange.insupport.se for a live webcam.

Day 3 of experiment preparation.
The experiment is ist mounted onto the balloon gondola and working correctly. Some more tests in the real technical flight-environment follow today. First launch opportunity is on Wednesday.

Today we gonna have our Preliminary Design Review here at ESRANGE. We are looking forward to a constructive discussion!

Yesterday we had an experiment-mockup construction session to check the arrangement of the experiments on the BEXUS gondola. Our experiment is the big box on the right bottom corner of the gondola.

Flight was cancelled, now we are taking a detour via Frankfurt to Stockholm and won’t reach Kiruna for the preliminary design review (PDR) today. Hopefully we have better luck tomorrow.
