[GreenKeys] The LE-2 balloon launch is a go for this morning!

[Steve Garrison]

Sorry to hear those results.  It was going so good and it seems as if there were a bunch of us watching the progress.  I watched from the start until LOS.  Maybe someone will find it and give you a call.  Let's hope so.

But either way congrats on a fine job!  My XYL asked when was I going to launch my first balloon.  Hi hi.

First a data blackout just after burst, then some more data reports, then it just went dead at about 48000.  We searched for a long time, but did not find it.  A lot of square miles in the potential landing zone from that height.  Bummer.
