Yes this will break four records. Just got aborted for the day due to high winds.
Couldn't tell you what 4 records other than the highest jump. Might also be the record for speed unaided, will break the speed of sound.
They tout this as "scientific" yet I'm struggling with what we're learning...perhaps we're learning how to bail out astronauts at high altitude (sarcastic).
They actually said that's part of their research.(no sarcasm)
The guy heading up the research lost his wife in one of the shuttle disasters.
OK - fair enough...but I think the thought of an astronaut punching out of a rocket doing Mach 5000, let alone having enough warning to do so, is silly...but then again, if you push off from the space station at JUST the right angle....
convenient excuse to sell product and look good doing it.
Am I sounding old or what?
