“There is no firm boundary where space begins. However the Kármán line, at an altitude of 100 kilometres above sea level, is conventionally used as the start of outer space for the purpose of space treaties and aerospace records keeping.”

Neither treaties nor aerospace records are at issue, here. Nor, I would add, did we use the more specific term “outer space.” We have not spread misinformation, nor are we “ignorant.”

You might as well argue that the Romainian teenager in question did not, in fact, put the actual space shuttle back in space, but a Lego replica of it, and that the headline is thus “spreading misinformation.” Our headlines tell stories; if we wanted them to read like titles in a scientific journal we would write them that way.

If not, just watch the video. The shuttle is hanging from a high altitude balloon by strings, along with the video camera that got the pictures. =]
