   Record Breaking Balloon Launch Attempt in August   
      
      On August 15, 2025, a unique balloon mission is planned by a Polish   
      amateur radio team. This is being organised by the AstroLife community   
      in cooperation with experienced stratospheric balloon operators and   
      amateur radio enthusiasts SP5LOT and SQ5RB. They seek to launch a   
      balloon from central Poland that will carry a scientific payload up at   
      least 40km into the stratosphere. The team plan to equip it with a   
      camera and transmitter that will transmit live images digitally during   
      the flight. They are crowdfunding the project and you can find out more
