The student project team "GPB in space" filmed the ascent of a weather balloon rising to 39,512 metres and noted the meteorological data. The entire project was organised and carried out by our students. The climbing height of the weather balloon that was reached exceeds even the height of similar projects by several thousand metres. Given this we had the opportunity to present unique images of the stratosphere, making visible the Earth's curvature and space.
We have put some images in our picture gallery.
If such exciting projects fascinate you, then perhaps you are interested in an IT traineeship at GPB College. You reach us on 030 3904810 or by email.
We look forward to hearing from you!
