Paper Plane Space photos


Photo from Steve Daniels, John Oates and Lester Haines ' spacecraft
 
 Found this article on Yahoo this morning.  Three guys from Britian created a paper plane with a camera and attached it to a helium balloon to take pictures of space.  The three foot plane was made of straws and covered in paper.  According to one of the men, Steve Daniels, they did it to see if it would work.  And it did.  Click here to see more of the photos. 



When the balloon burst above the Earth- I love this one!
 Apparently amateurs are taking over cause it has been done before.  Remember back in August when the father and son team of Luke and Max Geissbuhler launched a camera and iphone into space and captured amazing photos?  See the rest of their photos here.

Great job guys!
