Original Abstract

Stratosphere is easily accessible near-space environment with potential to be extensively used for experiments and interdisciplinary research requiring harsh conditions difficult to simulate on Earth. But it turns out that it has other properties as well. It can also connect people. In this case young people, students and scientists from both sides of former Czechoslovak border, which led to project called Together into stratosphere". It is a cross-border collaboration project between Valasske Mezirici Observatory in Czech Republic and Slovak Organization for Space Activities in Slovakia, which started in 2013. By sending probes on meteorological balloons to stratosphere, members of this project already executed multiple experiments, which involved biological experiments, measurements of cosmic radiation, technology experiments like tests of photovoltaic panels, IR radiation measurements, R-wave measurements, tests of picosatellite, communication between ground station and stratospheric platform and tests of GPS.
