Paper plane to be launched from ISS!

So, some super cool Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo are going to launch a paper origami airplane from Space into the Earth's atmosphere!! How cool is that!? It is going to be coated for heat resistance, refined in a high-speed wind tunnel, taken to the ISS and launched!

Ultimate coolness I think you'll agree. If you can read Japanese check out the Japan Origami Airplane Association, otherwise check it out here.

I hope they can track it!

And it was a bit ridiculous then and it hasn't gotten any better.

Please add to discussion linked above.

thanks
