Software for the Balloon-borne VLBI Experiment (BVEX). Set to launch from Timmins, Ontario, in August 2025 through the CSA Stratos Mission. This will simultaneously observe bright radio galaxies with ground-based observatories (such as the VLBA) at K-band. The goal for this technological demonstration flight is to be able to detect fringes.
