Spacebridge beta launch results

Well as I'm sure you have heard now, the launch of "Spacebridge beta" was a fail.
First we didn't bring enough (or the correct type) of batteries for the cameras.
Secondly we ran out of helium while filling the balloon.
Then when we lightened the payload in an attempt to send something into space it immediately flew into a tree.

Since we did have a balloon and a handful of stuff, we decided to send the "If found please call" tag with the balloon in hopes that maybe someone will find it and let us know where it landed.

The second Spacebridge launch is scheduled for today.
We'll be launching from Tracy, CA again.
Will be posting images from the flight after we retrieve the payload.
