Cyndi Danner-Kuhn on 28 Jan 12"Neither Mathew Ho nor Asad Muhammad can vote, or buy beer. They haven't been accepted to college yet, though that might change after this story. The 17-year-olds have already sent a (Lego) man into space. Two weeks ago, Ho and Muhammad launched a homemade balloon carrying a Lego passenger and four cameras. It fell back down to Earth 97 minutes later with astonishing footage from an estimated 24 kilometres above sea level, three times the typical cruising altitude of a commercial aircraft."
