I thought this was interesting....


A team of amateur scientists sent a video camera up 107,145ft into space, on a balloon.

Yeah that was pretty cool. Right when it pops and starts falling you kind of get the uneasy feeling like you're falling with it. Ha, very cool.

It probably would have cost NASA 10 million bucks to get a payload to that altitude...lol.

Pretty cool stuff actually. Was just done outside of Edmonton apparently.

It loses all credibility and merit then. What a bunch of losers endangering airliners with their balloon stunts. I am sure there is easier ways to escape Turdsville than balloon.

In all seriousness, very cool.

Yeah that is cool.
