Felix Baumgartner stepped into the void nearly 128,000 feet (39,000 meters) above southeastern New Mexico Sunday at just after 12 p.m. MT (2 p.m. ET, 1800  GMT), then landed safely on the desert floor

Official record:

Exit 128,097 feet [highest altitude parachute jump, highest altitude human travel by balloon]

Speed Mach 1.24, or 884MPH [fastest freefall]  exactly 65 years after Chuck Yeager first broke the sound barrier flying in an experimental rocket-powered airplane.

4:19 minutes in freefall.  Chute deployed at 5,200 feet.  Mission Director Joe Kittinger still holds the record for the longest amount of time in freefall without a droge chute, after Baumgartner broke his altitude and speed record.

The capsule landed 55 miles East of where Baumgartner landed.
