Geostationary Banana


A fruit blog such as this one certainly can't let this pass. Via BLDBLG, here is the Geostationary Banana Over Texas project.
The project is described as "an art intervention placing a gigantic banana over the Texas sky."...

The banana, we read, "will float between the high atmosphere and Earth's low orbit, being visible only from the state of Texas and its surroundings." It will be 300m long, framed with bamboo, and filled with helium...

After all, the project's organizers remind us, "a banana appearing in the Texas sky might seem like a 'message'."
