GoPro Records Grand Canyon From Edge Of Space


A GoPro camera lost after being launched in a weather balloon two years ago has been recovered, and it has some incredible footage of the Grand Canyon as seen from the edge of space. Bryan Chan and four of his friends, all students at Stanford University, sent the camera and a phone up in a balloon from Tuba City, Arizona, in 2013.

During the 90-minute flight, the balloon soared to a height of nearly 100,000 feet -- into the stratosphere -- before it burst.
