Android Collectible Heads to Space!

Google decided that exploring space would be something fun to casually do on a random weekend, so they made some weather balloons, strapped our favor robot collectible to them with cameras and a Nexus S, and sent them off.  They captured some great pictures of Earth, data, and found another way to get their mobile operating system some press.

Here is how they did it:
