Up, up and away!

All you need is a £56 camera and balloon and you can capture images from out of space! :)

Some teenagers used only a camera and latex balloon (and lots of brainpower) to capture pics from outer space from 20 miles above earth.

They got help from one of their teachers and decided to do this little project which took photos and atmospheric readings 20 miles above the ground. This experiment was completed at the end of February this year.

View there photographs here.

I got the story here.
