Talk about "Ingenuity..."

Taken at an altitude of 92,000 feet from a balloon sent up by MIT students this amazing photo shows just what you can do when you put your mind to it...

Costing less than $150, they used a prepaid cell phone, a sounding balloon, a parachute, a styro-foam beer cooler, duct tape, zip ties, a Canon A470 (with 8GB card), a newspaper (for insulation), a phone charger, a hand warmer and 6 lithium AA batteries...

Way To Go MIT!!!
