And some poor bugger will be walking along, minding his own business, only to be killed by a 300 degree paper plane travelling at Mach 7 from space.
...actually I'd pay good money to see that.

Without oxygen would it burn in space? Y
ou also need to consider that its the Japanese space program and not NASA. We all know that the paper plane will arive back safetly to earth and upon landing transform into a paper crane for a soft landing. |

I reckon it will make it to within 100 metres of landing, and an eagle or hawk will swoop on it cause it looks like dinner.

Post-Challenger, nutty scientists can do silly things like this with little fear of confiscation/detention.

"The University of Tokyo and the Japan folded paper (origami) plane society hopes to fly a paper airplane from the International Space Station to Earth. The plane will be 30-40cm long and weigh about 30 grams. A University of Tokyo research group has successfully designed a special paper plane model that was able to withstand a Mach 7 high velocity stream for 10 seconds. The experimental plane was about one-fifth the size and withstood temperatures as high as 300C without burning up."
