Yep, I found that a cool moment too. :)

(But I'm a bit afraid that it's just the camera's fish-eye effect.)

Let's hope that the pod had its own GPS tracker.

It drops what at 2 miles a minute and 18 miles up if it was 100,000 miles up.

This is one of the best events in all year and really worth all the effort. Balloon go up when you fill it with something (!). Let us know when it reaches the orbit and passes the international space station. That will be "awesome".

Were our names in the pod or in the box holding the camera? I don't want to be on the km!

I don't think it reached it's limit, was ripped off by strong winds about halfway...

If the pod truly weighted 2 kg then think about how much force it will have when it crashes earth.

I take it someone took the phrase "Shoe string budget" to mean they tied the pod on with a shoe string

Did I hear it right that the picture we are seeing is from a Samsung phone? How is it transmitting?
