This guy does:
His name is Alberto Dominguez. And he's pulled off this bizarre feat of measurement just because it's interesting - it might provide clues to the evolution of galaxies, matter and energy from the beginning of time. But, reading between the lines, I kinda get the impression he was just curious.
Go Alberto! Here's the original release.
