“We did it because we wanted to see if we could — and we could!”

Three British space buffs launched a straw and paper airplane, with a camera, to 90,000 feet attached to aweather balloon. The paper plane had a 3 foot wingspan and was called PARIS (Paper Aircraft Released Into Space).   I see a project for the Mechatronics Club here, with a 3 stage rocket powered by F Econo-Jet motors.   It would fit in well with the 2011 Large and Dangerous Rocket Society’s (LDRS)  national launch.  As a side note, did you know LDRS originated in Ohio?  The first LDRS event was held at Medina in 1982.
