A couple of Canadian school kids putting NASA to shame with the aid of a weather balloon and a little Danish mascot:


Snarky comments aside, that's is some lovely footage considering they were just using pretty basic kit. And considering the kind of air currents up there, they were lucky to get this little astronaut back so close!

What are the odds that this might appear in future Lego advertising?

That is one resilient piece of lego, and an awesome video. It's made me wonder if modified lego would be suitable for lunar/mars exploring robots...it's lightweight, easy to replace broken parts, and most importantly, looks cool.
