@Noobsquadz Oh man, that made me laugh. I can imagine JPL, logged into their youtube account, reading that whilst being all po-faced trying not to snigger. X,D

This would be epic with clear plastic on the top as a portable, temporary greenhouse... or even a solar heater for a house (pull air from the house through a window with the fan, and have it return through a smaller hose, perhaps a dryer vent?) Awesomeness.
-
Thanks, JPL. Really cool stuff. And great instruction.

We had one of these in elementary school (im 25 now) but ours had a tunnel to the inside and we didnt poke holes, there was a projector on the middle of the floor to show the constellations. They called it the StarLab. It was boss

@Jason80215 Yea but kids these days can just download the i-phone planetarium app and go outside to see the constellations, even in a large city you can make out the majority of the constellations.
Heck I use that app to guide my 8" Dobsonian reflector myself, s@#ts amazing, you can even tap a star and get more information about it.. It's made the old way of looking up star maps on the netbook instantly obsolete for me.
=p

Be sure to tell the children that in case of a power outage, feel free to escape the deflating bag by puncturing the walls with their pencils in case the exit is crowded or inaccessible.

Wonderful! We can't wait to try it out.

@ganymedeIV4 People living in cities can't enjoy that scene, because of too much light pollution, maybe that's why they create this
