Excerpt From The NatGeo Website:

Skydiver Felix Baumgartner is set to step out of a pressurized capsule and free-fall 23 miles (37 kilometers) from the edge of space to the New Mexico desert.

Baumgartner's team estimates the Austrian sky diver and helicopter pilot will reach Mach 1.2 — roughly 690 miles (1,110 kilometers) an hour — and free-fall for five and a half minutes before opening a parachute at 5,000 feet (1,524) to float him to the ground.
