Felix Baumgartner's World Record Skydive Trying

Felix Baumgartner's World Record Skydive Trying: Its giant helium balloon took off at Roswell, New Mexico, some time ago and is now climbing, which is needed to more than 120,000 feet (36.5 km).
Baumgartner then jump.The almost complete absence of air at this altitude means that it must break the speed of sound in the fall - the speed of over 690 mph (1,110 km / h).
Descent in 10 minutes, about half of it falling.
Nobody has ever been so high in a balloon, or try to make a jump with a parachute.
The current record for the biggest leap of all time is now 52 years old. It was created by the U.S. Air Force Colonel Joe Kittinger when he jumped out of the envelope helium at a height of 102,800 feet (31.3 km).
There are huge risks that seeks to Austria.
Wherever he goes, the atmospheric pressure is less than 2% of what it is at sea, and it is impossible to breathe without oxygen.Others, trying to beat the current record of the highest, longest and fastest free fall gave their lives in the process.
The engineers have done their best to limit the risks. They built the cabin sealed Austrian special in the air transport in accordance with the helium balloon.
It will also be wearing the next generation of full pressure suit, changing orange protective clothing worn by astronauts at the launch of the space shuttle.
                                 
Despite the jump as another thing Baumgartner, his team prefers to emphasize its scientific importance of high level.The project researchers believe Red Bull Stratos will inform the development of new systems for the emergency evacuation of high-performance, high-altitude vehicles. NASA satellite manufacturers and asked informed.There examples pilots ejected into the flow of supersonic air when the plane disintegrated in the sky, but no details of what happens in the human body as it goes supersonic then it slows, there is a subsonic again.Austrian Felix Baumgartner begins its ascent 36.5 km
Baumgartner is a tool for the acquisition of these new data.
Engineers have incorporated into their automatic transmission, which will deploy the parachute if stabilization is in trouble.However, there is great confidence in the team that Baumgartner finish the task before him. It was supported by the success of the two training jumps, which had its gradual increase in the stratosphere - of 71,600 feet (21.8 km) and 97,100 feet (29.6 km).
The official start time of the balloon was 0931MDT (1631GMT; 1731BST). Mission control at the airport after Roswell every moment, which is likely to have more than two hours of climbing to the height of the jump.Baumgartner is in contact, video and radio everywhere. The only person who spoke to him, however, Col. Kittinger, who was brought to the team at the beginning of Austrian advise how best to break records in the octogenarian."We will obtain your goal and your dream is Felix," said Kittinger Baumgartner immediately before departure.Read More>>
