Apparatus on the plane

Carl, Roxanne, and Dr. Leimkuehler donned their flight suits and boarded the aircraft. 








Everyone else stayed behind in the hanger and tracked the flights progress.

As soon as Carl and Roxanne got off the plane they said that the apparatus collected data! We look forward to seeing the GoPro Camera footage and the photos from the flight. Look forward to seeing Carl and Roxanne's flight reflections coming soon!
