It seems that world+dog has either sent something into the upper atmosphere suspended under a meteorological balloon, or is poised to go airborne with some form of stratospheric mission, so it's nice to hear of a project which has a little something extra. Back in 2010, James Trosh was studying for a Television Production …

  I'm wondering if there exists a space-to-Earth descent video of an inflatable whale, possibly with Jean Michelle Jarre's "Oxygene" or the BBC Radiophonic Workshop's "Whale Theme" dubbed onto it?

LOHAN burroo take note ?

The video was great fun, but it may be the Special Projects Burroo can learn something from this. The Lucky Elephant team seem to have got a very stable relationship between the Intrepid Robot and the camera. As the last musings on LOHAN design that I saw contemplated some sort of beam arrangement, there might be something to learn here.

Power to the Burroo !
