Prepared to have your mind blown, folks. A Brooklyn father/son teamed up and decided to do a little science experiment involving an iPhone, an HD camera, a weather balloon, and a takeout box. The goal was to capture footage of space.  Yes, footage of space. And they did. Space and our atmosphere can be pretty harsh, so, decided to put hand warmers on the interior of the ramped up takeout box to insulate the iPhone and camera from the unbelievably cold temperatures and 150 mph winds (wow!). And here’s what they got:

The helium balloon made the journey upwards and made it about 19 miles (100,000 feet) before popping due to the low pressure. After popping, the device made its journey back towards the Earth at an amazing 150 mph even with a parachute attached. Pretty amazing, eh?
