Open The Pod Bay Door, Hal

In Space, No One Can Hear You Scream For Joy

A French flight attendant, Mathilde Epron, has won a flight to the edge of space after picking up a KitKat wrapper from a bin. The wrapper contained a winning code for a competition to fly into sub-orbital space on board a new Rocketplane spacecraft. She initially threw the wrapper in the bin but later returned to discover the winning code.

FOOTNOTE: Earther Kit.

Amazing that she found her wrapper again! Lucky lady. I'd be fascinated to go. Think of the shots you could take up there....
