After seeing this record breaking skydive news “Skydiver breaks speed of sound in historic jump from edge of space” make me wonder, why do we need a space vehicle like the space shuttle to bring the astronauts back home on land when the astronauts can skydive from space? if this guy can do it, why not the astronauts? this would save us so much money, make a one way trip spaceship where it will lift up and go to space, the return home trip would be just to skydive. LOL

Skydive from space down to earth instead of having a space shuttle bring you back down astronauts
