OK, I agreeMini Booster is a balloon campaign aimed to measure infrasound in the atmosphere. The experiment is funded by SNSA and will be executed as a collaboration between IRF, SSC, and LKAB.
Three balloons, each carrying two infrasound microphones, will be launched simultaneously from Esrange space center and ascend to an altitude around 30 km. During the flight the experiments will record infrasound from natural and industrial sources, and the flight will be synchronized with three large surface detonations.
