This young girl wanted to send her daddy a message but, he was too far away.

The 13-year old girl, known only as Stephanie, missed her dad who works around 200 miles ABOVE their home.  He's aboard the International Space Station and Stephanie really misses him when he's away.  She can't drop off lunch or call him so, she got creative.

The folks at Hyundai helped her out. They sent eleven cars outfitted with special tires and trained drivers to a dry lake bed to write out Stephanie's note to her dad so he could see it from space.

The note, about the size of a small city, got into the Guinness Book of World Records for "largest tire track image" and yes, it worked.  Steph's Dad saw it and radioed back to earth that he loved her to.

Aww.
