ECLIPSE
FROM NEAR SPACE
On March 20, 2015
a total solar eclipse will occur.
And we will watch it from the
stratosphere!
Solar eclipse – is one of the most amazing and
beautiful natural phenomena that mankind had
ever seen.
Each time a solar eclipse occur thousands of
people enjoyed watching the two celestial bodies
that intersect and create a spectacular,
breathtaking sight.
Many amateurs and professionals trying not to lose ability to make beautiful
pictures and footages.
But all this pictures are made from surface of
earth.
Another thing - to look at a solar eclipse
from the stratosphere.
Unfortunately, today the image of such an eclipse exists only in the form of
pictures created using a photo editor.
We will survey the total phase of the eclipse
from a height of 30 km, running into the
stratosphere balloon with equipment for filming
and for scientific research.
In addition to preparing a shooting photo&video currently constitute the
scientific research program in collaboration with academic institutions:
• Institute of Nuclear Physics, Moscow State University
• Central Aerological Observatory
• Physics Institute. Lebedev RAS.
We have enough experience in surveys from the
stratosphere.
The first launch was carried out in April 2011. After that,
we faced many pitfalls, but eventually solved most of
them and continued experiments.
Thanks to our posts about launches advertisers noticed
us. With them, we ran into the stratosphere wristwatch,
claiming to work in any conditions.
Soon we were approached by scientists. The
reason is similar: experiments on stratospheric
balloons in a spaceport demanded from several
months to several years for approval, and we
organized a similar project in just a couple of
weeks. Today we are engaged in world
conferences and congresses on space topics
and preparing joint reports and scientific articles
from various experts.
One of the most ambitious to date, was the
launch of the stratospheric balloons over the
Olympic facilities in Sochi, a few days before the
start of the Games. Soaring over Adler, the probe
flew smoothly over Krasnaya Polyana and landed
180 km from the launch site, breaking the
Greater Caucasus Range.
Recently we started the project "Space For
Children". This is an attempt to show the younger
generation how beautiful the world and the earth,
to prove that the cosmos - is necessary and
interesting direction, and the fact that in their life
there are pretty ambitious things require not so
much wasted forces.

So, the solar eclipse on March 2015. The shadow of the moon touches
the large part of the northern hemisphere.
In the band of full phase of land areas fall Faroe Islands and Svalbard.
There we put this unique experiment.
Major settlements, where you can observe the total
eclipse:

Spitsbergen
Spitsbergen, (also Svalbard, Grumant) - vast
polar archipelago located in the Arctic Ocean,
between 76° 26 ’ and 80° 50' north latitude and
10° and 32° east longitude.
Significant economic activity in the archipelago
besides Norway, according to the special
status of the archipelago, carries only the
Russian Federation, which has on the island
Spitsbergen Russian locality settlement of
Barentsburg, and preserved villages and
Grumant Pyramid.
Svalbard has arctic climate, in the west
considerably softened by the warm
Spitsbergen current (part of the Gulf Stream).
The average temperature on the coast of +4,4
° C (July) to -10 ... -14 ° C (January). Due to
the influence of the Gulf Stream, winter
temperatures in Svalbard on average 20
degrees higher than in other places
comparable latitude. The maximum recorded
temperature +24,5 ° C.
Hope to cooperate with you.
