Bobble head Ray gets launched in to nearspace!


19th July 2013

Today FM's Ray D'Arcy show asked us to launch bobble head Ray into nearspace!

On a perfect July morning, without a cloud in the sky and with no wind, we launched "Space Ray"
From Cookstown, Co. Tyrone.

Exceeding the target altitude of 101,000 feet, "Ray" made it all the way to 103,400 feet before landing just a few miles from the predicted landing site in Co. Donegal.

Here are some photos and video links 







Look out for the next launch in a few weeks - weather permitting !
