Stratospheric Ballooning Association
Our Mission
To promote STEM education, research and best practices in High Altitude Ballooning and other stratospheric and space related activities.
Research and networking
Thousands of scientists and engineers work together to conduct research at altitudes of 100,000 ft (30 km) and higher. This research is then peer reviewed and discussed through our annual conference and Journal of High Altitude Ballooning.
STEM Education
The SBA promotes STEM education through high altitude balloon activities. We believe that high altitude ballooning is a great way to encourage students to get involved in STEM and to explore our world.
