    You ever notice how it curves a ton when the horizon is above the middle but flattens out when it’s below the middle? That’s the barreling caused by the fisheye lens. To see what the actual curve is you need to catch it right in the middle of the lens and when that does happen you see how much it truly curves. Just a heads up to anyone who’s confused.

      ​@@christopherjames4422Not entirely true as it is visible in some weather balloon footage without fish eye lenses although it's just barely visible. Although the human eye has a much wider field of view than a canera so I would think it would be easier to see it with your own eyes at that altitude.

    @DeepSkyStories 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    If you do try this another time, you should figure out a method of using the lessening air pressure to cut the string (maybe by an expanding bladder with a cutting tool?)so the glider separates properly. I kept waiting for that to happen. Good try though.👍

    • @fromagefrizzbizz9377
      @fromagefrizzbizz9377 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      The usual method is a pyro charge to simply burn the string. I've done this with rockets going to about 2000' - you eject the parachute, at apogee. The parachute shrouds are tied together with a loop of light nylon fishing line. A second pyro charge goes off at a few hundred feet to burn the fishing line and open the chute.
      Can be very tricky at high altitudes because blackpowder behaves rather strangely at low temperatures and pressures. Using smokeless gunpowder in a "burstable" container may be a better idea, see if you can find a high power rocket enthusiast who's up with the latest methods

  • @forestsoceansmusic

    Very impressive. One thing I couldn't see, did the glider make it back to ground/water? If it landed somewhere other than the payload, how was the cord connecting them severed?

    • @GFlCh
      @GFlCh 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      At 15:01 the video shows a map with the (on land) landing location of the glider marked, and the (on water) landing location of the payload marked. They are separated by a good bit of land, and most of body of water (a lake perhaps).
      The top speed indicated was 200 kph (in a thin atmosphere), reducing to 60 kph then 45 kph (perhaps the top speed was higher). That speed/tension/force could have broken the tether, or perhaps destroyed the mount on the glider or the payload.
      Or, since the whole point of bringing the glider up, and knowing the glider couldn't support the weight of the payload, they must have designed them to separate so the glider would have a chance glide on it's own back to the ground.

      It is perfectly legal as long as you follow the F.A.R. (federal aviation regulations) part 61 guidlines for unmanned ballooning and phone the nearest ATC (air traffic control) location to give them when and where you are launching and landing.

      The title doe nothing to explain why we did not see the glider. A very intelligent person could easily deduce that the point of hanging a glider from a balloon and bringing it to near space would be to get one hell of a glider ride. After all in the first experiment with the drone it was all about the view from the glider why don't we get a view from the glider on the balloon drop. We got to see a popped balloon fall from space and land in a lake like a piece of space junk. The description below the video does a little to explain what was going on but not in enough detail to explain to those that might be victims of "click bait".

      Dudes, there isn’t much air at 70,000 feet. If you wanted a glider to stay up there, you’d need wings 3x as long. It was mostly there to guide the plane back to a retrievable position.

      The launch of atmospheric balloon is governed by a law called "civil aviation". Legislation that prohibits wild probe shipment. Not everyone is allowed to send one.Organizations such as Météo France or Cnes (national center for space study) can and before each release they must warn Civil Aviation. This is for France but all other countries have similar legislation

    This was very ambitious and maybe inspired by Baumgartners World record jump from edge of space with Helium balloon in space suit with parachute. This must be a World record for high altitude flights with small scale glider model and it was accomplished with a small budget the balloon and model did reach 33000-Meters Edge of Space.
