Abstract:
The
payload is designed to gain a better understanding of the thermal
effects that a high-altitude balloon experiences during flight.
A thermal imaging camera
will be used to measure the balloon surface temperature and study
the temperature gradients across the balloon.
This work builds upon previous Deep Space Test Bed and HASP
2006 flights and the imaging acquired here will be compared with the
results from the previous flights.
