A LEGO set just flew to space and broke a Guinness World Record

A company named Sent Into Space recently launched a cute little LEGO set to space. Taking to social media, on April 21, the company shared a video of the launch and  it quickly gathered a lot of attention. It went up to the Stratosphere and safely returned back. This extraordinary trip earned it a Guinness World Record. 

In the video, the entire Project Hail Mary model was attached to a piece of kit driven by a balloon and launched on a perfectly clear March day. The set went up 114,790 feet before spiraling back down and landing safely on the surrounding grass. The set was specially designed to deflect all the pressure from the atmosphere. 

In order to capture this historic moment, several cameras were set up and the view was breathtaking as the balloon reached a considerable height. A GPS tracker was also attached to pinpoint the exact location of the model. This flight now records the highest heights a LEGO model has ever been at and the safe retrieval of the same.

Now as for the figurine it was inspired from the film Project Hail Mary and had Ryland Grace, which was based on Ryan Gosling’s role, the friendly extraterrestrial Rocky, and some spaceship components. 

Dr. Chris Rose, who led this innovative project at Sent Into Space, described the experience as something driven purely by fun and curiosity. The idea was to inspire kids by showcasing the possibilities of science and technology in an engaging way.

More than just a creative experiment, it highlights how far imagination can stretch when paired with innovation. It also hints at a future where similar ideas could evolve alongside advanced technologies and be a useful mode to explore the depth of outer space.
