Flying with Balloons: A Journey to the Stratosphere

The video explores the concept of flying with balloons, starting with a small experiment using tea bags and balloons. The team prepares a box equipped with a GPS and camera to track a balloon's journey. They collaborate with scientists from the National Center for Space Studies to launch the balloon. After the launch, they track its path and eventually locate it 350 kilometers away. The balloon's journey reaches the stratosphere before it bursts and falls back to the ground.
