Wink Duck and Cover...

Yeah!
Origami in Space!
I noticed here, the term paper aeroplane is space is a contradiction, as an airplane needs air to fly in. Hence, is that is why it is referred a a "paper plane". This is the same problem with the space shuttle - is it a spacecraft or an aircraft?
Question though... If these paper plane can travel at seven times the speed of sound, wouldn't that be dangerous if they hit the ground at that speed... I mean, it would do more than poke your eye out!
