Lego man sent to space by Toronto teens - Toronto. Two Toronto high school students launched a Lego man more than two dozen kilometres above sea level — and they have the pictures to prove it. A few months ago, Mathew Ho approached his pal, Asad Muhammad, with a plan to use a weather balloon to to carry a camera high above the clouds.
The 17-year-old Grade 12 students had heard about similar projects by students in the United States and Britain that had yielded amazing footage of near space. "Right when we saw the videos, we were like: ‘This is definitely plausible, we can pull this off, too, if we really put our minds to it,'" Ho recalled. Muhammad has been fascinated by aviation since childhood, and more recently by the videos that got Ho thinking about their eventual project. "That really got me into space things," Muhammad said. Once the plan was hatched, the students from Agincourt Collegiate Institute started working out the details for putting their plastic astronaut in space.
