Vaguely remember seeing an article about some European students who did something similar earlier this year

Yeah, saw that last night.

The Spanish kids beat the MIT guys by 7 months.

Now I wonder how they would go if they could point the camera into space? Hubble for $200.00, now that would be embarrassing

First, second or third this is a great achievement.
Do you need permits for this type of thing? The sky is a busy(ish) place!
