Re: [Utah-astronomy] iPad free fall from "edge of space"
It was a GoPro HD Hero from the looks of it... http://gopro.com/hd-hero-cameras/ On Jan 8, 2012, at 8:56 AM, M Wilson wrote: With all this talk about i-Pad durability and bowling balls being dropped over the Salt Flats, nobody has bothered to note how durable the video camera was that accompanied the i-Pad and G-Force packaging to the earth. As far as I can tell, the camera had no particular packaging on it, but it survived the fall and kept on recording events after earthly impact. Now that's one tough camera!! http://www.ubergizmo.com/2012/01/g-form-extreme-edge-ipad-case
Comes with a shatter proof case. Still one tough camera.

Tough cameras are a good thing. It means better youtube videos of skateboarders doing stupid things in their effort to clean-up the gene pool. ;-)
