Published purpose

The main objective of this initiative is to provide undergraduate students with a learning opportunity to apply knowledge learned in physics courses to a real-life, hands-on experience. This is accomplished through student-led design, building and delivery of a short (one year) end to end space mission which will fly on a high altitude balloon.
