    How long these Teddy Bears roam on the earth? It is time to see the outer space. I could not resist myself asking them how they felt at such high altitudes?? :D

    I wonder what is the purpose of this mission....Did any of the teddy bear experience anything...

    And why on earth did they need soft landing?..Teady bears are any way soft...aren't they? :confused:

    It's a kiddos experiment where in

    "the aim of the experiment was to monitor weather conditions in the stratosphere and determine which materials provide the best insulation against the freezing temperatures experienced on the flight."

    That apart ....MAT and KMS must have had great fun together space walking. They indeed looked lovely and huggable in those special space suits!
