Zephyrus. The High Altitude Balloon project.

It seems that everyone is jumping on the bandwagon to get a snap of the third rock from space these days. During our regularly scheduled coffee and a whinge a number of us at work decided to join the party and to finally prove that the Earth isn't flat.

To get 'out there' we need a balloon. A big balloon. We also need a payload of gadgets to track it and to snap us some photos. Most importantly, we need to give the project a name. And we have one.

Zephyrus, meaning "west wind" is the name for our project to go into the stratosphere and beyond...
