Professor and students capture images of the solar eclipse from 111,000 feet - UTC News Releases Dr. Daniel Loveless and students launched a high altitude balloon in northern Soddy Daisy, Tenn. to get a unique perspective of the recent solar eclipse.

A couple of my favorites from our eclipse balloon. The first is the Earth in shadow of the moon, and the second shows fragments of the balloon as it burst right ~111,000 ft. Many others to follow in a slide deck in the coming week.

Track UTChattSat's eclipse balloon tomorrow at aprs.fi (callsign KN4CNY). Estimated time of launch is 12:45pm EDT.

Fun night at Baylor School's Idea Panel with Jack Studer from The Company Lab, Felicia Jackson from The CPR LifeWrap, and Larry Roberts. Impressive and motivated set of students!
