Could do a home built VHF repeater, kinda like a cubesat, and see what the furthest distance is between contacts. Would need to coordinate frequencies and you'd probably want to run it like a contesting thing with very short QSO to maximize the number of contacts. I'd donate a hundred bucks. It would be nice to have a telemetry radio onboard too.

I will also kick it around with my friends in Parachute Mobile, they may have some ideas: http://parachutemobile.com/ http://parachutemobile.com/ Of course it would also depend on things like weight limits on the balloon and what won't interfere with the student research packages (or maybe even collaborate with them?), but let's keep in touch!
