HSL Meeting (Thurs) 7:00 pm|az @ Gangplank - Commons Area

Nearspace balloons are great for AZ/CA hackerspace catfights, but did you know they can be used for SCIENCE as well? Jasper did this with the University of Idaho in Soviet Moscow, and will tell us all about how our Idahoan friends accomplished exactly what we plan to do: Send a balloon into space and take pics because it will happen!

As always, t-shirts, membership subscriptions, and Make: magazine subscriptions will be available and hustled aggressively by our Board of Directors.

Gangplank is located on the southeast corner of Elliot and Arizona Ave at:
325 East Elliot Rd. Suite 34
Chandler, AZ 85225
