The launch site is Koerner Aviation, Kankakee, Illinois. Date is April 5, 2008. Peep awaits for balloon to be ready. Change of command: the green peep had become too stale to fly. Official portrait of our peep-o-naut. Balloon is ready. Countdown and launch! Off it goes... Landing site: 85 miles from launch, near New Carlisle, Indiana. After a rough landing into a dry cornfield, the peep seems in good spirits. A bit deflated, but well worth it. The rescue team.
