BFS students perform an out of this world science experiment!
Students, teachers, and families gathered on a crystal clear day at the end of the school year to watch as the 8th Grader's high-altitude weather balloon soared into the skies. The experiment left the ozone layer and entered the stratosphere with a top altitude of 101,629 feet before the balloon burst and coasted back towards Earth, gathering data on atmospheric pressure, temperature, velocity, altitude, imagery, and radiation levels along the way.
