So, when do we meet and diagnose or just swap stories?

In other words, when's the wake.

I must say, this was a REALLY cool experience, from beginning to end…

 

And, in case you got a negative vibe from the “When’s the Wake” coment….

 

I am Irish.

For me, the Wake is a time to celebrate. To toast and to commemorate the live and times of the honored one (Or, in our case, the honored box)

Good morning!

You've done a great job, guys! I've been following this project for a year and a half.
It was real fun participating in White Star trainings for remote mission controllers, even if I didn't have the chance to do it for real (balloon went down shortly before my shift).
I joined in on Teamspeak and Youtube stream around 5 am UTC Sunday morning to see you preparing for the flight, going down the checklists and finally actually launching the balloon. It looked really cool! Live video stream with multiple screens from the spaceport and mission control room was a superb idea.

More information about the current status on your Twitter accounts or #highaltitude would have been greatly appreciated by us recently woken up here in Europe, but I do know you were very busy and tired there fixing the problems, it was a deep night already and the rain was coming close giving even more pressure. Also the sound quality of the "Default channel"..

I hope you'll find your blackbox and figure out what actually happened with it.
As Pat already said, it was a cool experience. I'm looking forward to you launching the SpeedBall-2 eventually!
