A smartphone has been blasted into orbit from India by a team of researchers from the University of Surrey. They hope to use a purpose-built app to test the theory, immortalised in the film Alien, that "in space no-one can hear you scream".

The plasma drive on that satellite sounds like a major achievement! I don't do facebook so won't be able to see the pictures (maybe someone can post?)
The small size of the satellite is something most people don't think of either as we're so used to the commercial satellite sizes.
