- What do you offer?
Stratoscience offers the opportunity to explore space creating a personalized scientific project that tailors to your needs. Your scientific project then flown above 35 km up in the stratosphere attached to our weather balloons. Then we recover the payload for you and we return it back to you. That is an affordable way to get excited about science and engineering and also for obtaining interesting and valuable research data.
We can either carry out launches for you or run launches with you. We can arrange everything you may need to get data from near space and we can tailor the project to suit your needs.
