MC2 Post 1050 Two iPhones Hitch a Ride on the Last Shuttle Flight

Two iPhones to Blast into Space on

Final Space Shuttle Mission

Although the iPhones will fly into space on the last space shuttle mission, they'll have to hitch a ride with a Russian Soyuz spacecraft to return to earth.

The iPhones will be loaded with Odyssey Space Research's SpaceLab for iOS app. Four experiments will be conducted; they are simulated in the App Store version, after the app checks for gravity. The app itself is identical to the one that will be used on the ISS.
