I knew there was a good use for Hello Kitty!  It took a very clever 7th grader to figure it out!  Lauren Rojas from Antioch, CA did this as her entry in a science fair; "The effects of altitude on air pressure and temperature."  Unless some other kid builds a working scale model of the Mars Rover, Lauren should win this thing hands down!

Might need a little Dramamine watching the video.  Take note where the kitty lands after re-entry. Kind of ironic.  All kidding aside, Good for Lauren!!  This gives me hope for her generation and our future!
