Estimated ground speed averages successive valid fixes using onboard time. Blank across invalid fixes, boot changes, uncertain clocks and gaps over 90 minutes. Replay steps through received packets, not real elapsed time.

Mission events
A flight log that writes itself.
Reception gaps, boot changes, GPS recovery and reported faults will appear here. This is not a launch-readiness checklist.
COMMUNITY GROUND NETWORK
Gateway reception
No gateway receptions yet.
Each gateway’s packet count and mean signal levels appear here once an uplink arrives. Ocean silence is expected; it does not prove a failure.
Counts are unique packets per receiver in this window; one packet can reach several gateways. Signal averages use reported receptions.

How to read this mission · data limits & interpretation
Mission status comes from configuration, not an automatic inference that the balloon has launched. The API is polled every 30 seconds; this does not mean the radio transmits every 30 seconds. A last reception older than 90 minutes is labeled radio quiet, a display heuristic rather than a failure alarm.
The window contains at most the latest 2,000 observations, ordered by observation time. This is not the full archive. Network-received timestamps may describe buffered observations, so speed is omitted unless both observations have onboard timestamps. A valid fix can still contain GPS error; these plots are not navigation guidance.
Map lines connect successive valid fixes only, not a predicted trajectory. Distance excludes gaps over 90 minutes and invalid positions; it is neither total flight distance nor circumnavigation progress. Optional fields remain blank if not transmitted. Voltage is not state of charge.
