Dear Space: Please Look After These Bears, Thank You

Out of this world: British teddy bears strapped to giant weather balloon pictured at edge of space | Mail Online

These little teddies endured -54 degree temperatures and a ride into near-space on a weather balloon, but they survived due to the special clothing created and developed by the elementary students in Britian who sent them there. They made it back safely too due to parachutes! The project was a collaboration between a college science program and a primary school.

    This is awesome. And special, and gives me hope.

    But I think those bears need some knitted sweaters.

    Ooh! Wonder if you could crochet a little cap or something for the one on the left? She looks chilly enough to really appreciate one.
