Algalita's Joel Paschal checks the Junk raft after it's initial test launch. In the Summer of 2008, the raft called "Junk" will sail 2,100 miles from Los Angeles through the North Pacific Gyre, on raft made of junk. Designed by Dr. Marcus Eriksen and Joel Paschal, the raft, dubbed "Junk" will be constructed from 20,000 plastic bottles, an airplane fuselage, discarded fishing nets, a solar generator, and a bicycle generator.
