This balloon had one job: reporting on weather, not to sightsee.
You just can’t rely on these bureaucrats ;)

Yeah I am gonna pick a nit here:
"Some background on this picture: myself and four friends sent a weather balloon with a GoPro, camcorder, and phone back in June 2013.
Why is it so de rigueur to use the word "myself" these days. As in this case, it is usually misused....
Fantastic video however!

They used a fish eye lens and it is evident throughout the video...especially at 1:07-1:10 and at 1:27.

There is a High School group out of Bishop, CA, named Earth to Sky Calculus. They release weather balloons regularly to study science. Their funding comes from donations to buy the helium.
Details of their experiments, pictures, etc appear regularly on http://spaceweather.com/ There is a picture from their Sept. 6 launch which was taken of the “Rough Fire” in Ca.
Earth 2 Sky Calculus
@Earth2SkyCalc
A group of fairly brilliant high school students who send weather balloons to the stratosphere for both research and profit.
