Team Members:	Team Sparkles Dan Hammers Dan Schulz Ruthanna Wantz
Balloon Name	Russell
Question to Answer:	How does the amount of ultraviolet radiation absorbed by ozone affect temperatures in the stratosphere?

Balloon Name	Dug
Question to Answer:	How much infrared light is absorbed by the atmosphere at each altitude?

Question to Answer:	How does the concentration of CO2 change as altitude increases?
Our Hypothesis:	Compared to other gases in the air (N2, O2, etc.), we expect that CO2 will be less concentrated farther up into the atmosphere. Put simply, the percentage of CO2 will be less at high altitudes.
