As the terminator line rolls around the planet, we deliver fresh toasted goodness to the people of the world

Subscribe now and get a dozen free bagels with your order!

Our orbiting launchers deliver freshly toasted baked goods direct to your front door - or other location of your choice - at an agreed upon time each day.

Let the natural processes of atmospheric reentry bake your bread/s of choice to the desired degree.

Our baked goods are designed and calibrated to be toasted to your specification by the time they touch down in your landing net (plus or minus tolerance levels may apply depending on your latitude, see terms and conditions for details).

All you have to add is the butter and jam.

Similar concept bu closer to Earth [Pellepeloton, Oct 18 2006]

If it's burnt, send it back for a money back guarantee!!!! Cool idea. You get one free atmospheric croissant.

Does anyone know a piece of toast's terminal velocity? And how much power and accuracy it would take to fire a piece or two of bread into sub-orbit altitude, landing it within a five-foot radius? It's farfetched, but it still deserves my vote.

This would work if you're willing to pay ~$2,000 per slice of bread. (Cost of orbital launch is about $10,000/lb)

I'd pay $2000 for a slice of toast if it was freshly delivered from space. It would be worth it just for this:

"I'm going up to the cafe, would you like something to eat?"

"No thanks, I've just had some space toast."

I guess if we did our baking in zero-g, or as low as it gets in orbit, we might have some interesting swirls in our trademark cinnamon rolls.

You'd want to attach some sort of guidance system to the toast to make sure it lands in the right place.
