Many thanks to the NSBF launching team!
The campaign started of course long before the arrival in Ft. Sumner:
Development of a revised data acquisition and trigger system, upgrades
on data receiving, installation of onboard storage, a compacter design
of the balloon gondola, and many other improvements since the first two
engineering flights in 1997 kept us quite busy. The system was tested and
calibrated during runs at Nevis Laboratories
and finally at the NSBF site
in Ft. Sumner.
Here are some images from the flight (NSBF # 464N) and preparation:
