- Info These bears were lifted to 30,085 metres above sea level on a latex high altitude balloon filled with He. The aim of the experiment was to determine which materials provided the best insulation against the -53 ° C temperatures experienced during the journey. Each of the bears wore a different space suit designed by 11-13 year olds from SPARKS science club at Parkside Community College and Coleridge Community College UK.

- Oppose too out of focus to be mitigated by the extreme rarity of the event. The crop is unfortunate as well. Definitely a valuable image. --Relic38 (talk) 17:12, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

- Support - I wouldn't want to place a several thousand dollar camera under a helium balloon to overcome the mentioned quality problems - would you ? ;) --Curnen (talk) 20:44, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- Even with a 50$ camera you can set the focus right, you know. ;o) Yann (talk) 22:16, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, but if this photo was really taken at 7,3 mm, you can imagine how close the teddies were. And I have not seen any 50$ camera, that can focus on a point that close. --Curnen (talk) 15:50, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
