General Information
We are pleased to announce a workshop dedicated to discussing technologies for scientific Ballooning.
The Scientific Ballooning Technologies Workshop will be held in the Minneapolis campus of the University of Minnesota/Twin Cities. The 2.5 day workshop will be held between May 9 and noon of May 11, 2016.
The workshop scope includes (but is not limited to) gondola design, experiment-wide data acquisition and control systems, attitude control systems, onboard control software both for the attitude control and for the entire experiment, onboard computer hardware, power systems, telemetry systems, and thermal design and control.
The workshop will provide an opportunity for all hands-on ballooning practitioners to discuss the technologies we are all using to carry out our scientific investigations.
