jstn:

Red Bull Stratos is scheduled to launch today at 1:30pm! Felix Baumgartner will ride in a capsule carried by a balloon to an altitude of nearly 23 miles and then step out, falling face down and within 40 seconds becoming the first person to break the sound barrier without a vehicle. It will the highest, fastest, longest skydive ever attempted, breaking the records set by Joseph Kittinger in 1960 (using far less technology and no pressurized capsule).
