.NASA's Scientific Balloon System's 5th balloon mission of the 2024 fall campaign flew Wednesday, Sept. 4, 2024, from the company's Columbia Scientific Balloon Resource in Ft Sumner, New Mexico. The HASP 1.0 (High-Altitude Pupil Platform) goal remained in flight over 11 hrs before it properly touched down. Recuperation is actually underway.HASP is a relationship one of the Louisiana Area Grant Consortium, the Astrophysics Branch of NASA's Science Goal Directorate, as well as the company's Balloon Course Office and Columbia Scientific Balloon Center. The HASP system supports as much as 12 student-built hauls and is actually designed to tour exam small satellites, models, and also other small practices. Since 2006, HASP has involved greater than 1,600 undergraduate and also college students involved in the purposes.Crews taking part in the 2024 HASP 1.0 air travel consisted of: Educational institution of North Fla and Educational Institution of North Dakota Arizona State College Louisiana State College College of Colorado Rock University of the Canyons Fortress Lewis University Capitol Technical University Educational Institution of Arizona Universidad Nacional de Ingenieru00eda (Peru) as well as McMaster University (Canada).A brand new, bigger version of the High-Altitude Trainee Platform (HASP 2.0) possessed its own engineering examination air travel a couple of days prior. HASP 2.0 will definitely have the ability to suit twice as several pupil practices as HASP 1.0 when functional in the next year.The remaining three balloon flights scheduled for the 2024 Fort Sumner fall project await upcoming launch chances.
