    Stratofox recovers missing Japanese CanSat research payload at Black Rock
    I was a member of the Stratofox team who recovered the missing Japanese CanSat research payload from the Black Rock Desert in Nevada on November 23. The odds against finding a soda can sized object in the vast desert would have made a needle in a haystack search look good. Fortunately, as has been the story before, a little intuition about where to narrow down the search and quite a bit of luck led to success.
