Curve_One Project Overview

 

Curve_One was a photography and science project launched on June 26, 2010. Launched using a meteorological sounding balloon, a digital camera, and a GPS enabled cell phone, the achieved goals were to inexpensively photograph the curvature of the earth with the blackness of space; do such an experiment in a safe and legal manner; put information I've "learned" in school to the test; and have fun exploring "space."
