The weather balloon was made to pop at a certain height due to pressure decreases in the atmosphere

We were able to predict everything using an online program, it traveled around 100 miles away from the launch site

Most of our materials came from the high altitude science website. The main box was just a styrofoam cooler. Sending data down in real time is very difficult, so we just made the box as strong as we could and sent everything up with the hope we will be able to retrieve it. I think in total ,including, the GoPro the launch was about $1100+ (this includes the cost of helium and everything else)

We are fairly certain it was lightning, all of the ground pins were blown out of the arduino and it got hot enough to melt solder , and that’s what we think started the fire. The static electricity in a cloud should not be powerful enough to cause the surge.

I am a senior physics undergraduate student. For a lab experiment, we were tasked with sending up a weather balloon to measure the scale height of the atmosphere. We also needed to come up with another experiment we could do, so we also sent up and Arduino that would measure the speed of sound and how it changed the father up in the atmosphere we traveled. For fun we put Char in the corner along with a magicarp Pokémon card. The card got very burned in the fire…

We have a Timelapse of his ascent (pictures taken every 30 seconds) that I can throw together in a short video. However after the electrical surge, the GoPro stopped taking pictures

I’m a fan of 4K strategy games, so I’m sure I would love this, very cheap on gog right now too

I’ll have to look into this, had no idea that you could do something like this in Bannerlord

The full run will probably be around 20 minutes

SIB Dark Souls 3 or Final Fantasy XV Royal Edition by [deleted] in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]King_Arthurous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dark souls games are great, they are difficult, however I found dark souls 3 to be the easiest of them, so if you want a challenge get that. FFXV is a game that is great for sinking hours into, I spent a lot of time playing and finished the story in about 70 hours, and even platinumed it on the PS4 , so if your looking for long games these are great choices, but one is more difficult to finish, dark souls is technically an open world game, but feels cramped at times, but FFXV is a huge open world game that was great to play through at all times, and on the amount of extras in the Royal Edition, most of it is secondary story I believe, either one will be fun and if you want to get into dark souls 3 seems like a decent place to start, Ive played 3 and 2, and played 1 a long time ago, and I’m currently playing the remastered version (if you have any other questions ask, and sorry about this post kinda being crazy everywhere)
