MIT Red Balloon Challenge Team wins DARPA Challenge

It took the MIT team less than 9 hours to determine the location of all the
balloons.

More about their effort here: http://balloon.media.mit.edu/mit/faq/

Jayme Johnson reported a few balloon locations late in the day (at least
here on the east coast) before the MIT win was announced.

Thanks to all who helped out and participated with the ISBFT effort.

The journey was the reward.
