HASP Proceeding through Climbout

HASP was launched at about 07:30 MDT and is now climbing through 15,000 feet (~4,800 m). We are expecting to go through minimum temperature of about -70 deg F at about 60,000 feet. Live video from HASP is available on the HASP or CosmoCam website. CosmoCam is now stowed for minimum temperature and looking at the Montana State University dust capture experiment.
