We're launching a weather balloon and talking about the weather (standard WindBorne fare) on November 20.
Help us build a planetary nervous system / witness the release of a WindBorne Global Sounding Balloon (GSB) which weighs ~2.5 lbs, remains aloft for an average of 21 days, collects 30-50x more data than a traditional radiosonde, and can circle the entire planet multiple times!

WindBorne Systems is a weather intelligence company that designs, manufactures, and operates the world's only constellation of smart, long-duration weather balloons. Along the way, their balloons collect temperature, humidity, pressure, and wind data that feeds directly into the weather forecast on your phone.
