Cassini probe paper model

Cassini paper model

Now, we're not complaining that this isn't good enough or anything, because obviously paper models are about as good as anything gets when you don't have the cash for the real thing. But seriously, as cool as this thing is, wouldn't a paper model of the Cassini space probe (the one currently in Saturn's orbit) be made like infinitely better by it being a kite? Just think about it. Plus, you could pretend that the string is the beam of data it's shooting back to earth at the speed of light. Now that's what we call science.
