Just back from a very productive meeting in Nanjing. Here you can see the designing engineer testing our GPS tracking and camera system, which will be mounted on a new model helicopter for further tests and later on a weather ballon. Why I am saying new model helicopter? Well, unfortunately the old model helicopter had a bad crash yesterday and is out of order.

The next picture shows Prof. Peng, sitting on the breadboard construction of a automatic weather ballon launch monitoring system (filling gas H₂):

Finally some pictures of the initial space microscope prototype for our Cubesat mission, which will be lifted to a altitude of 40 km with a 2 m diamter weather ballon soon...
