Launch of a Boundary Layer Pressurized Balloon from #Ushuaia Airport in February 2000.

It was one of the seven launched as part of the BOA (Ballons sur l'Océan Austral) campaign carried out between #CNES, LMD, and University of Buenos Aires - CIMA.

The #balloons flew at an almost constant altitude of 1350 meters.

The goal was to obtain along their trajectories measurements of pressure, temperature, water vapor, and wind velocity.
