Former company engineer POTMarc Robert, launched egg from space to try to prove something: he can survive.
All this “ordeal”, as he himself describes, is filmed and shows us how science can intervene even in such unique situations.
great work behind
This test was planned for 3 years, with major changes to the system that will lead to egg to the limit of our atmosphere.
egg it was attached to a rocket, which, in turn, was attached to a weather balloon flying into space.
However, the experiment did not reach this value: it only rose to 30 kilometers in height when the Karman line is 100.
Robert worked with a rocket-building expert from the Curiosity mission to also create a mattress that could catch an egg on landing. A heating system was added to the rocket so that the egg would not freeze in space.
Plot twist: not broken
The video ends with an image no one expected: egg it survived the fall without breaking. The images already have 20 million views.
The former engineer already holds two Guinness World Records: one for the tallest fountain of elephant toothpaste and the other for the most dominoes placed and knocked over in an hour.
“Next year we will do it on Mars,” Robert wrote in the video caption.
