Hello Kitty Or Richard Branson, Who Will Be First Into Space?

Wednesday, February 6, 2013 0:27

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

A balloon fitted with a camera being launched into the sky, gave seventh grader Lauren Rojas from Antioch, california an idea for science. Rather than making the typical chocolate cake diorama of the Earth’s crust Lauren decided to send her Hello Kitty doll into space.

With the help of her father Lauren put GoPro video cameras and a rocket-shaped vessel for the Hello Kitty doll on a platform attached to a weather balloon. ”We spent about one month planning and executing it,” said Rod Rojas, Lauren’s father. “We used a company called High Altitude Science in Colorado to get the equipment, the weather balloon and flight computer.”

According to Rod Rojas, the balloon reached an altitude of 93,625 feet, or 17.73 miles, before busting due to the thin air. Hello Kitty landed in a tree 47 miles from the launch site. As if this feat in itself weren’t enough to win the science fair, Lauren included an officially science-fair-y angle in the project: The balloon launch gathered data about air pressure and temperature at high altitudes.

This amazing little girl has managed to put Hello Kitty into space before Richard Branson, one of the richest men in the world.
