Watch 1000 Lego astronauts soar to the edge of space on 'mini space-shuttle'

A high-altitude balloon carried a mini space-shuttle with 1000 Legonauts to the edge of space. Three flights were conducted from an airport in Slovakia. The balloon burst at an altitude of 21 miles (34 kilometers) and then the landing platform returned to Earth under a parachute.
