Oh my god, you guys.... I just came across the cutest article.
Teddy Bears in space!The student-run Cambridge University Spaceflight looks to reduce the cost of suborbital spaceflight, and frequently conducts experiments by launching high altitude balloons into near space. For their eighth Nova launch, they collaborated with a local science club. Club members ages 11-13 were invited to design insulating spacesuits to help the teddy bears survive the -53 °C temperature they would encounter during the flight....
.....The bears were launched on November 29th and returned to Earth on December 1st. Unfortunately, all four bears appear to have frozen while in space, but the cameras in the payload captured several striking images of their journey.
And there are pic! Oh boy.. pics!
Cambridge University Spaceflight has an awesome page and I think I'm going to stop work now. Go surfing instead. And I want to be 11 again. lol
WWwweeeeeeee!!

Hi
Teddy bears are cute for kids.
Did not follow the link, probably some sort of hoax. But the real story behind the Teddy Bear is not such a cute stuff.
Does a Teddy make you glow?
cheers
I wanted to share a post of mine on another blog to match your post

mmtwgr,
I'd like to think I've been online enough to tell when something is a hoax.
