I was first doubtful if I will post this kind of topic since it seems useless to mine bitcoin into space, but after reading the whole article I thought that I will also share this historical even that took place 100,000 feet above the surface of the earth.

The company called Miner One has launched its mining rig called Space Miner One using a hydrogen filled latex balloon. According to the CEO of Miner One "the goal of Space Miner One is to symbolically express our belief that bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general is about the future and the revolutionary technology at its heart: so-called blockchain technology. And with this new technology, the skys the limit. And if you believe it or not it actually confirmed transactions at space, how cool isnt it.

I guess this even will be recorded in bitcoin history as the first mining rig to mine bitcoins at space.

Space Miner One does not include solar panels, but works well in low-temperature stratosphere. This mission lasted 2.5 hours with hashrate mining of only 330 Mh / s, so it is not possible to produce satoshi as a whole. However, the PR action of Miner One can still be seen as the beginning of the age of the Bitcoin mining space.

with the same success it is possible to mine on polar station in Arctic among polar bears, from the batteries taken with itself, all Arctic night.
