Wow! I am surprised it is even legan to launch those ballons from SF, specially that close to the airport. What is the regulation? Is it based on the size/weigth of the ballon?

Our balloons fall under the FAA Part 101 weather balloon exemption, which is based on the weight and purpose (basically it has to be small and has to collect weather data)
