I am prototyping paper airplanes usinge the idea of 3D-printing directly to thin paper and then cutting the parts for assembly.
I also tried using a 3D-pen. Both ways work and the planes fly pretty well. Next up: bigger plane + supercap-motor unit.
The idea is inspired by a recent video of Tom Stanton.

Fly! Fly high!
Use this image as inspiration to write a very short story based on it.

Sometimes there are profound questions in life that must be answered, like "What is the meaning of existence?", "Are we alone in the universe?" or "What happens if you throw a paper airplane from the International Space Station?" Luckily, that third one has finally been answered, because of course someone would eventually.
Could a Paper Plane Thrown from the ISS Survive the Flight?
