Our aim is to take the attention of students and encourge them to join scientific projects and researches. Our lesson plan different from others because students do not just learn to how a high altitude balloon (HAB) flies, they also build and fly it themselves. In the end of this course; they will be able to launch a HAB, collect and analyze the data of an experiment, and improve themselves. We will also design a website that enables students to find and compare materials. Hence, they can purchase them cheaply and easily. Moreover, there are some methods like sponsorship or group work that will signifcantly reduce the cost required to launch a HAB. We provide students to meet well-known individuals, earn participation certificates, find opportunity to work with famous organizations on the field; that make us more preferable. We use Prezi.com, Paint and PowerPoint programs while creating our presentations. We prepare a curriculum including detailed information about history, component training, system training, flight training and experiments of HAB.

We reach the information about launching a HAB, and what a person must know about HAB from NASA websites, Wikipedia, Overlook Horizon. We are inspired from NASA's student activities and we want to provide people to join scientific activities.We want students to get experiences and work with professionals as Synder wants. Finally, an exploring program student indicates that this is not just learning in a book, it is a chance to actually do things and have the experience. That is what we try to give students with our lesson plan.

We have started when we learn that it is last day for the registration. We have created a team quickly and looked for challenges. We are really enthusiastic about aerospace and NASA. We wanted to participate in this challenge because we tought that we could get a lot of experience and fun. We work hard and reach our goal.
