Coot Gooood Morning SimHQ! Senior Member Registered: 08/30/05 Posts: 4555 Loc: !!USA!!	I find these high altitude balloon experiements done by normal folk really cool. I guess that launch is somewhat historical. Perhaps the first Canadian Lego Man made in China launched into space. _________________________ " Without morals a republic cannot subsist any length of time; they therefore who are decrying the Christian religion, whose morality is so sublime and pure...are undermining the solid foundation of morals, the best security for the duration of free governments."

I thought it was a fantastic achievement. I completely agree. I was very impressed with their project.
