MIT Students Take Pictures from Space for <$150


Two MIT students have captured images from space on a severe budget of $150. Perhaps the most impressive part is they did it entirely with off the shelf items.

Gaining over 17 miles in altitude, they were high enough to see the curvature of the earth, the darkness of space, and the intense cold associated with severe altitude. Impressive.
