The Spacelab Team flew to Sicily on October 30 to plan the next year activities over mount Etna and Stromboli for the Volando Project. 

Volando (VOlcanic pLume chAracterization using sounNDing balloOns ) is a project born from the collaboration of the Spacelab team of UniPi and the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV). This project will merge the balloon flying capabilities of our team and the knowledge and expertise of the INGV to gather insights and original data about vulcanic ash plumes over mount Etna and Stromboli.
