Google wanted to see just how durable their newest smartphone is; as well as collect a plethora of data using the sensors that are built into the device. They decided it was prudent to attach a total of seven Nexi, type S, into a collection of styrofoam coolers taped to a balloon and see what they could get. While Andy wont get his Astronaut wings this round, tomorrow is another day.
As of now they’ve recovered 85.7% of the phones that lifted off into the air. Finders keepers?
