Up, up and away! Seen here at sunrise is the high-altitude balloon carrying the HySICS instruments before launch to the outermost part of Earth's atmosphere. The HyperSpectral Imager for Climate Science (HySICS) made its inaugural engineering balloon flight from Fort Sumner, N.M., the morning of Sept. 29. Balloon flights provide realistic, space-like conditions at a fraction of the cost of launching an instrument into space, so is an ideal means of testing new technologies. A 60-story tall balloon lifted HySICS to an altitude of nearly 122,000 feet, far above the majority of Earth’s atmosphere, heights where the sky is nearly as black as in space.
