In June 2013, a group of friends launched a weather balloon a few miles from Tuba City, Arizona. The amazing footage was found two years later by an Arizona Arizona hiker. Enjoy the video of our launch preparations, video footage, and some data analysis of the flight.Max altitude: 98,664 ft (30.1 k...

The Perseid Meteor Shower is produced by debris from the 109P/Swift-Tuttle comet. In 2018, Perseids will peak on the night of 12 August into the morning of 13 August, starting around 10 pm local time.

The team, at NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, is looking at the idea initially as a potential unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). "We have a couple of options that this concept could be good for," said Bill Fredericks, aerospace engineer. "It could be used for small package delivery o...
