SSI-24 Orion was one of three balloons launched during fall quarter, 2015. It consisted of an almost all-freshman team dedicated to creating a scientifically power yet aesthetically beautiful payload. Ultimately, Orion represented a resounding success in its use of sensors, logging of data, power management, use of solar energy to charge its batteries, demonstration of wifi transmissions, and creation of a visually refined payload. The total ground track was 121.21 miles, and the top speed reached was 92.44 miles per hour.
