Paper Plane in Space!
When I was younger I participated in OM and one of the events I did was on flight. We built various types of aircraft to accomplish different feats like stay in the air the longest, fly the farthest with a set amount of force, etc. Now just barely 20 years later a few people launched a paper airplane into space! They did this with the help of a helium balloon and at 3-feet wide the plane is considerably larger than what I was working on in elementary school. Here is the article about this along with the photos that the camera that was attached to the plane took. The photo above is one of them. I think it is pretty awesome that they did this, don't you?
