It's official - there are little green men in space. Disappointingly the aliens are not from another planet but were launched from Earth by Google to test the outer limits of their new Nexus S phone.
The tiny Android astronauts were strapped to seven payloads, which each contained one of the new mobiles. They were carried into Earth's outer atmosphere using weather balloons.

(Captain) Zi Wang from Google Android said: 'We wanted an opportunity to collect some interesting data about the sensors in Nexus S - GPS, gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer.'
The phones were running a variety of apps. Google Maps for Mobile 5.0 (with ohttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifffline map data) which allowed the team what was directly below the balloon, Google Sky Map to try and identify the real stars in the backdrop and Latitude to report location when the phones had a data connection.
Amazingly the Nexus S could withstand temperatures as low as minus 50 degrees celsius, while the GPS kept track of the phone up to 60,000ft and started working again on the balloon's descent.
The balloons reached heights of over 100,000ft and travelled at up to 139mph at the top of their flight. They were equipped with still and video cameras and footage published on Wednesday shows the moment when the helium-filled balloons popped and the plucky Android astronauts plummeted back to Earth.

The final clip in the series, which goes live on November 9, 2010, will show how OK Go achieved their creative vision using the NX100.
OK Go is recognized throughout the world for their groundbreaking and inventive music videos, which have received more than 125 million online views. Videos include “Here it Goes Again” (also known as “Treadmills Dance”), which features the band performing a choreographed routine across eight treadmills in one continuous take. The band’s latest video and single, “White Knuckles,” achieved a million YouTube hits in 24 hours when it was released in October 2010.
“Samsung’s been great because we had a creative idea and they had the tools to help us make it,” said Damian Kulash, lead singer of OK Go.
“We are impressed and inspired by the band’s memorable and imaginative music videos,” said Mr. SangJin Park, President of the Digital Imaging Business, Samsung Electronics. “The NX100, an easy-to-use but high-quality camera, was the perfect tool to let the band express their creativity and experiment with new ideas. The camera is compact and portable enough to take with you wherever you go, but powerful enough to realize your creative ideas through great pictures. The ‘Last Leaf’ music video is a perfect example of how the NX100 enables you to bring your inspiration to life.”
The Samsung NX100 was designed to make taking beautiful pictures simple, quick and easy. By incorporating the revolutionary 20mm wide i-Function Lens, with both automatic and fast manual settings, users can control the camera’s settings via the lens, without having to take the camera off target. Given the recent popularity of the intuitive i-Function Lens, Samsung will include the i-Function technology in all of their future lenses for the NX range, including five additional lenses that will be introduced next year. Samsung has also provided a new firmware update, making the i-Function Lens compatible with the NX10.
The NX100 boasts the compact size and lightweight advantages of being a mirrorless camera, while delivering the image quality of a DSLR. Available in two different colors, the design of the NX100, inspired by the shape of a dewdrop forming on a leaf, is also sleek and stylish. The camera features the fastest Auto Focus (AF) of any interchangeable lens camera to date, making it even easier to have the perfect picture at your fingertips.
