Jumping From Space! - Red Bull Space Dive - BBC_

Jumping from space typically refers to a high-altitude or suborbital skydive, where an individual or a group of individuals leap from a platform or vehicle located at an extreme altitude, often near the edge of space. This activity is usually carried out using a specialized pressurized suit and equipment to protect the jumper from the harsh conditions of the upper atmosphere, including low pressure and temperature.

The most well-known example of jumping from space is the Red Bull Stratos mission, which took place on October 14, 2012. Austrian skydiver Felix Baumgartner jumped from a helium balloon at an altitude of approximately 39 kilometers (24 miles) above the Earth's surface. During the jump, Baumgartner achieved supersonic speeds, reaching a maximum velocity of 1,357.64 km/h (843.6 mph), breaking the sound barrier without the aid of a vehicle.

Here's a general overview of the stages involved in such a jump:

Preparation: Extensive planning, engineering, and testing are required
