In June 2012, a team of six Year 12 Students (Lower Sixth Form) from Cockermouth School in Cumbria, North West England, were given the task of launching a high altitude balloon with an on board camera to capture video footage of the curvature of the earth. Eight months later, on 23rd January 2013, the balloon was launched. Sadly, the capsule and camera were never recovered, and a small member of our team lost in the process. However, we want to tell our story.
A story of hope, a story of loss, but most of all a story of the unknown. We may never know the fate of our balloon, but we will always know this: It got to near space.
Enjoy the film!
Many thanks to the team for all their hard work, we all made it a truly unforgettable experience: Callum Pearson (Flight Director), Matthew Beresford (Chief technical engineer), Tom Howarth (Technology expert), Emily Douglas (Materials designer in chief), Becky Cummings (Public Relations) and Imogen Sharpe (Sourcer of Equipment).
Also a massive thank you to the guys at React Engineering and Createc Solutions for all their help and guidance, in particular Pete Rodgers, without whose help this would not have been possible.
