SuitSat...
Today, in about an hour of so, the astronauts in the International Space Station are getting ready to toss a spacesuit out the door. Here's a little bit of the article and the link to a website that's tracking it.
Pulled this right off MSNBC.com:
"Friday, they will stuff an old spacesuit with discarded clothes and a radio transmitter and toss it out the door. Complete with helmet and gloves, off it should float like a lost soul in space.
The transmitter will send recorded messages in six languages to amateur radio operators for several days before eventually re-entering Earth’s atmosphere and burning up, NASA officials said."
