Watch This Amazing GoPro Footage of the Grand Canyon From Space [VIDEO]

Two years ago, a GoPro launched into space by Stanford University students was lost. Now it has been found, and the recovered footage is quite stunning.

Bryan Chan told ABC News that the GoPro and a phone with a GPS was launched near the Grand Canyon on June 8, 2013 on a high-altitude weather balloon to gather data for his aerospace engineering dissertation.

The GoPro was able to catch some great footage of the Grand Canyon a few miles into the stratosphere. The camera was lost, until this past March when an Arizona hiker named Pearl Tsosie found the GoPro and phone near the Grand Canyon. Tsosie was also an employee for AT&T, and she used that to her advantage to identify the phone's owner using the sim card.

Chan got the GoPro back and edited the aerial footage and uploaded the video last Thursday to YouTube.
