Sticky Rice's Sushi in Space (Extended)

Posted by: Jonathan – Mar 23, 2012

Sticky Rice has sent a sushi roll into space... more specifically they sent their popular Godzirra Roll. In collaboration with RVA TV and Bark Marketing, they launched their sushi plate on January 1st of this year and retrieved the craft in the woods of Central Va hours later.

Six months of planning went into this project as a lot of variables were at play: -60F in space, atmospheric pressure on electronics, overheated or freezing batteries, GPS issues, stabilization, and how to make the sushi stay together. The team are hoping for national attention and plan to make a shorter commercial for air play. Email jon@rvatv.com for more info.

Note: We've received many emails asking how this was accomplished. We spent a long time researching this project. We suggest you to do the same. Do the research or you're missing the point.

Please know that if you don't know where you want it to land (severely remote areas) than you don't know where to launch it from. Get to that point and then call Lockheed Flight Services (877) 487-6867.
