Freezer bag broken ?

Looks as if the QinetiQ1 high-altitude flight could be off - possibly due to problems with the balloon's envelope. I hope they resolve this quickly, but it's likely that anything more than a brief hold-up could take them past the end of this years weather window. Best of luck guys...

UPDATE: It does look as if the balloon's envelope is damaged - irreparably - and the record attempt's off for the forseeable future.
