Jumped From Space (World Record Supersonic Freefall)
On October 14, 2012, Felix Baumgartner, an Austrian skydiver, accomplished a historic feat by completing a record-breaking supersonic freefall jump from the stratosphere. This event, known as the Red Bull Stratos mission, captivated global audiences and pushed the boundaries of human achievement in space exploration and extreme sports.
Baumgartner ascended to an altitude of approximately 39 kilometers (24 miles) above the Earth's surface in a helium balloon-equipped capsule. At this extraordinary height, he then leaped from the capsule, initiating a freefall descent that reached a maximum speed of approximately 1,357.64 kilometers per hour (843.6 miles per hour). This incredible velocity caused him to break the sound barrier during his descent, making him the first person to achieve supersonic speeds without the assistance of a vehicle.
His successful completion of the jump not only set records for the highest altitude jump, the highest manned balloon flight, and the fastest freefall, but it also demonstrated the potential for human exploration of the outer limits of the Earth's atmosphere. Baumgartner's achievement stands as a testament to the spirit of adventure, human ingenuity, and the pursuit of groundbreaking scientific endeavors.
