Balloon Outreach, Research, Exploration and Landscape Imaging System

BOREALIS is MSGC's stratospheric ballooning program. In the program, students from a variety of majors work together to conceive, design and build payloads that are flown up to 100,000 feet - the edge of space. BOREALIS has two complete ballooning programs at Montana State University and the Salish Kootenai College. Other MSGC Affiliate campuses develop science and engineering payloads to fly in coordination with the two university programs.
