Chennai-based Aerolaunch India sent a miniature car bonnet coated with CarzSpa's Aegis XG paint protection film to 21 km altitude via a high-altitude balloon, exposing it to -50°C, low pressure and increased UV. The HAB0226 mission included UV logging and 5.7K imagery; the payload landed near Melkangayan Kuppam, and the coating showed no visible changes.
