Space nerds have Moviestaken trolling Trump into the stratosphere.
On Wednesday, the Autonomous Space Agency Network, amateurs who promote DIY space exploration, revealed a little project it was working on. It's called "The First Protest in Space," and it involved sending an insulting Trump tweet into orbit on a weather balloon.
SEE ALSO: Donald Trump finally provided a clue about NASA's futureAs Motherboardreported, the stunt was inspired by something the late Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell said regarding politics.
"From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty," said Mitchell, who was the sixth person to walk on the moon. "You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, 'Look at that, you son of a bitch.'"
So naturally, when you've got a quote this perfect and a man in politics who needs trolling, you do what you can to make a statement.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
In all caps, ASAN (not to be confused with NASA) straight up addressed a "LOOK AT THAT, YOU SON OF A BITCH" tweet to Donald Trump's personal handle, printed it out, and sent it reeling into the air to make a serious statement. According to ASAN, the tweet was launched from AN52 near Phoenix, "one of dozens of concrete crosses" that were used to help "calibrate the first spy satellites."
Now we'd hate to burst your bubble because the first protest in space sounds cool and all, but the weather balloon only brought the tweet to nearspace in the stratosphere, at around 90,000 feet.
The stratosphere is the second major layer of the Earth's atmosphere, and it extends from about 33,000 feet to some 160,000 feet above sea level. Outer space is widely considered to start at around 330,000 feet.
Nevertheless, seeing a giant printed-out tweet trolling Trump suspended above Earth is still extremely satisfying.
The two-hour-long video, set to an appropriately dramatic soundtrack, will give you a glimpse at the entire tweet's entire journey -- from launch to the stratosphere.
Cherish this sight, because with Trump's newly proposed NASA budgets, who knows if we'll ever have the ability to troll Trump from actual space.
