StratoScience Workshop - INFO SESSION, 1:00 pm
Choose ONE of four optional, free Info Sessions on Oct 26, Nov 2, 9, and 16 where students and parents can learn more about this workshop. Attending one of the info sessions is mandatory for taking the class.
Join us to learn about this exciting engineering class, beginning Dec 7, hosted by the New England Weather Balloon Society. In this class, students will meet Saturday afternoons, learning about high altitude balloons, electronics, coding, and the scientific process. Students will design their own science experiments and build their own electronic instruments using microcontrollers, sensors, and code that they write themselves. Students will learn to thoroughly test their instruments and integrate their systems together. In the Summer, the students can join in the excitement of launch day, helping to prepare, launch, track, case, and recover the high altitude balloon and payload. After recovery, students will be encouraged to plot and analyze their data and present their projects at the annual HamXposition convention in Marlborough.
