EUSO-SPB1 was launched in April 2017 from Wanaka (New Zeland) as a mission of opportunity on a NASA super-pressure baloon test flight planned to circle the southern hemisphere. NASA's balloon program allows for mission durations of up to 100 days at a stable altitude of about 33 km. However, after 12 days and 4 hours aloft, the EUSO-SPB1 flight was terminated prematurely in the Pacific Ocean. The EUSO-SPB2 paylod is currently completing fabrication and testing. EUSO-SPB2's planned launch is for March-April of 2023 from Wanaka Airport. This launch window and location is chosen to allow the balloon to travel easterly around the globe following a stratospheric air circulation that develops in these latitudes (~45 degrees south). |
