The first radiosonde was used in 1929. The Frenchman, Robert Bureau invented it.
A radiosonde(Sondeis French and German for probe) is a unit for use in things such as weather balloons that measures various atmospheric parameters and transmits them to a fixed receiver.

A radiosonde receiver is used to receive data signals transmitted by radiosondes. These devices are typically launched into the atmosphere to collect weather data such as temperature, humidity, and pressure. The radiosonde receiver can capture this data and provide valuable information for weather forecasting and research purposes.
The purpose of a radiosonde is to collect meteorological data from the atmosphere, such as temperature, humidity, pressure, and wind speed. This information helps meteorologists create weather forecasts and track atmospheric conditions for various purposes, including aviation, research, and climate studies.
After a weather balloon bursts, the radiosonde is released from the balloon and falls back to the ground under a small parachute. The radiosonde is equipped with a transmitter to send data to the ground station, allowing meteorologists to track its location and retrieve it for data analysis.
A radiosonde observation typically doesn't extend above 100000 feet in altitude because the air pressure is very low at high altitudes, causing the radiosonde balloon to expand and eventually burst. Additionally, the instruments on board may not be able to function properly under extreme conditions.
False.I thought they can do that.

The radiosonde was invented by Robert Bureau in 1929. It is a device used to measure various atmospheric parameters, such as temperature, humidity, and pressure, at different altitudes in the Earth's atmosphere.
A weather balloon or a specialized instrument called a radiosonde is used to collect data and gather information about the atmosphere. The radiosonde is attached to a balloon and released into the air, allowing it to ascend through the different layers of the atmosphere, including the stratosphere. By analyzing the data collected by the radiosonde, scientists can determine the altitude at which the stratosphere begins.
