We did not fake sending Field Notes into near space but admittedly, we did fake this image of Mission Control from​ July of 1960 – Jul. 12th, 2018

This is a story about how we launched Field Notes into space. Our new “Three Missions” Edition celebrates American space flight. ​We thought it would be fun to organize a launch of our own, in order to capture a key shot for the film about this Summer release. To achieve this we decided to mount a “Punch-Out and Assemble” Apollo Crew Capsule to a rod. Connect that rod to a box containing a camera and GPS tracking unit. Attach the box to a parachute and a big weather balloon filled with helium, and then send the whole rig up into the sky. Easy, right? – Jun. 29th, 2018
