yep there where more than a few decorated with mismatched numbers of big circular eyes.
There are plenty of spaces for more UK secondary schools to get involved in the next flight (oct) so please forward to any teachers you might know (and its free, your tax-pounds at work).
They are kinder egg toy capsules and each one contains a Mars experiment created by a UK student.
The cold temps, low pressure and extra radiation make high altitude a good testing ground for Mars experiments that is reachable on a very low budget!
We chose kinder eggs as anyone can get hold of them and they are easy to open and close; unlike ping pong balls.
