BendiNewsTest: The Yeung sisters from Seattle successfully launched a DIY craft to the edge of space

Hi,

This page is currently being developed. This page checks Sustainability Blogs and RSS News Feeds for new content and posts it to here each day. The aim is to share information related to sustainability which is relevant to people living in Central Victoria while also providing a channel for international sustainability information. I am just discovering the Internets information sharing potential. I'd like to help other not so tech savvy people learn how to find interesting and new Sustainability info. Please tell me your favorite blogs or news sources and I will add them to the list.

Thanks

The Yeung sisters from Seattle successfully launched a DIY craft to the edge of space

In Seattle over this Labor Day Weekend, two curious young girls launched a homemade aircraft, hoping to reach the edge of space. And they did. Kimberly and Rebecca Yeung’s spacecraft, made from wooden triangles and broken arrow shafts, rose 78,000 feet – twice as high as a commercial aircraft – carrying a picture of their cat next to a Lego R2-D2.
