“As a tribute to the end of the Space Shuttle program, a YouTuber going by the handle vinciverse used a LEGO Space Shuttle kit to make a shuttle, he then attached it to a helium balloon, hooked up a camera, and watched as the shuttle flew into the upper reaches of the atmosphere. Here’s vinciverse’s description of the launch:”

We’re working very hard to fix this as soon as possible, and we’ve had engineers on it throughout yesterday and last night, but we wanted to keep you posted here with what’s happened and what we know so far.”
