Swedish researchers sent a donut into space, and it's stunningly beautiful

This video of a donut elegantly floating through space brings a whole new meaning to the phrase “sugar high.”

Thanks to a weather balloon and a team of Swedish masterminds, the baked good—which we deduced was most likely strawberry-flavored, if its pink icing was any indication—made its way up to the edge of space, 32km up into the sky. Its trip started at Askim, Norway, where it was dispatched, floated up to the heavenly skies, and eventually plummeted back down to Earth where it was later recovered.

Kids, donut try this at home.

Here’s what was probably going through the donut’s mind—you know, ’cause donuts have minds—during the space exploration:

“See you later, suckers.”
