Attached is a near infrared image of the moon's shadow from about 45,000 feet. I'm still downloading data and haven't got the exact altitudes yet.

Eclipse Consideration
Is everyone launching a balloon taking into consideration that the moon's shadow is approaching the surface at an angle with respect to the surface? From where I'm launching, the sun will be at an ang

Mike and My's Flight [2 Attachments]
Paul, I don't know if you are still doing your forensic analysis of this flight but I put a tool online that might help create a new look at this. It allows you to model a flight path in 3 dimensions
