Teddy bears reach edge of space.




This story came from the Daily News and thought it was interesting.

These two teddy bears were strapped to a helium weather ballon and reached the edge of space. They had special spacesuits made by the school children.
Here are a few photos.
They made it back to earth safely, about 50 miles from the launch pad, so that was good.

Have a great weekend

Hugs
