Outer Space - A Photographer's Journey

My name is Evan Taylor, I am a 20 year old artist/student at Gustavus Adolphus College,
in Saint Peter, Minnesota.

Looking to build my portfolio, on February 5, 2011, I sent my camera up into the air and
out of this world using a 1000g helium weather balloon to capture photographs and video
from unbelievable locations.

The idea sparked when I climbed to the highest point of Oahu, Hawaii to take photographs,
and realized that I wanted to go higher...into Space.

a video camera fell 120,000 feet without a parachute and survived?  golly.
