The mission called "Red bull Stratos"

Yesterday, implemented a project Red Bull Stratos.
Ekstrimal Austrian Felix Baumgartner made his historic jump from the stratosphere, breaking several records.
Sitting in the capsule to which was attached a helium balloon, he rose to a height of 39,045 meters,
from 4 minutes 19 seconds was lost to the ground, opening the parachute at an altitude of 1500 meters.
Baumgartner, during the free fall has a top speed of more than 1100 km / h, that is likely overcome the speed of sound -
although this has yet to be confirmed.
