A true tale? I do hope so!

I have just read more detail of the British team that sent send homemade aircraft to the edge of space before flying it back to Earth.

Pictured here initial launch of the plane before its 17 miles trip into the atmosphere where it captured images of the curvature of the globe using a miniature camera. The plane, which has a 3ft wing span and is made from paper straws covered in paper, was launched using nothing more powerful than a large helium balloon.

Notice it box shaped wings.

Here is a picture of the plane as it was found 100 miles from the launch site. Notice the wings are no longer box shaped,

I hope this is no hoax story!
