TechRise is led by NASA\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/directorates\/spacetech\/flightopportunities\/index.html\">Flight Opportunities<\/a> program and administered by Future Engineers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re so proud of these student teams for their work to tackle some of the agency\u2019s biggest science and technology challenges,\u201d said Dr. Prasun Desai, acting associate administrator for NASA\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/directorates\/spacetech\/home\/index.html\">Space Technology Mission Directorate<\/a> (STMD) at NASA Headquarters in Washington. \u201cPrograms like TechRise are critical to the development of tomorrow\u2019s space exploration leaders as they give students the hands-on experience of bringing an experiment idea to life \u2013 building crucial science, technology, and engineering skills along the way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The high-altitude balloon from Sioux Falls-based Aerostar launched at around 7:30 a.m. CDT from Hurley, South Dakota. Student projects flew for about six hours in the stratosphere, reaching an altitude of over 70,000 feet, or 13 miles above Earth. The payloads collected data on a wide range of space exploration and Earth observation experiments in areas like radiation sensing and shielding, agriculture, human health, weather, and climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A team from Escuela Secundaria de la Universidad de Puerto Rico tested a wearable radiation sensor. The San Juan high school\u2019s payload included a qualitative radiation-receptive textile made from an algae biomass that was designed to change color depending on the level of exposure. The team hopes the material will not only be used for radiation detection in future space applications but will also help address and understand the impact of marine algae overgrowth in the areas around Puerto Rico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is a source of pride for me and for the Escuela Secundaria de la Universidad de Puerto Rico to see my students’ experiment at the NASA TechRise launch,\u201d said Gina L Ortiz Andrade, educator lead for the school\u2019s TechRise team. \u201cIt was a great and unforgettable opportunity that every student will carry in each of their hearts, and an excellent opportunity of professional improvement for each of our students.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flight Opportunities is managed at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/centers\/armstrong\/home\/index.html\">NASA\u2019s Armstrong Flight Research Center<\/a> in Edwards, California, and is part of STMD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NASA will be launching the next TechRise Student Challenge this fall.
