The Hackerspaces in Space project has successfully launched a space blimp using Twilio for communication purposes. The blimp is equipped with an APRS radio system that sends messages through Twilio voice and SMS, allowing the recovery team to stay updated on its status and location. Participants can also call a dedicated phone number to receive live updates and SMS messages with direct links to Google Maps. The launch was deemed successful, and the project's use of Twilio enabled real-time communication between the flight team and the public.
