SpaceHub Southeast

The organization sends experiments to the upper atmosphere via high altitude weather balloon on a semi-regular basis.

Most notably, the organization's STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) outreach program allows students and the general public to send PongSat experiments to the upper atmosphere free of charge.

SpaceHub Southeast was cofounded in Atlanta, Georgia, in 2012 by Beau Martin and Meryl Mccurry with the mission to provide access to the upper atmosphere to the general public.

The partnership resulted in special balloon launch carrying one pound of whole bean coffee to the upper stratosphere,[2] which was then brewed and consumed.
