If you think you’ve ever made a considerable effort to take a cool picture, think again. A 19 year old British teen named Adam Cudworth has launched a homemade balloon and camera into space to take some pictures. The whole project consisting of a balloon, camera, transmitter, etc. cost him under $350 to build. Not bad if you ask me to acquire some truly impressive amateur pictures of earth from a high altitude. Not bad at all.
So ask yourself, what are you going to do to top this kid? I know someone out there will. It will only be a matter of time until 6 year olds are pranking the astronauts on the space station with a fake pizza delivery craft they built for $16 using their materializing printer and downloadable plans.
