After lunch Jeff and Katie, the Science Techs, let me help with a balloon launch. The balloon launch is for NOAA. The balloon carries a radiosond and an ozonesond. It measures wind speeds and the amount of ozone in the air. They use this to monitor ozon over Greenland. Jeff and Katie filled the balloon with helium in the mechanics garage and then they let me launch the balloon. It was very fun.
