Egg Drop From Space: Sometimes something must have fallen from your hand and broken. Take an egg, for example. You will say this happens, but if the egg is dropped from space, will the egg break? You will think, what kind of question is this? The egg will break. Well, one such experiment was done by a NASA engineer who made a video of that whole experiment and uploaded it on his YouTube channel. This video has been viewed more than 2 crore times so far.
Well, now you must be wondering what would have happened if an egg was dropped from space; to know that, you must watch the video. The name of engineer who did this experiment is Mark Rober. Mark has done this experiment along with his partner from NASA. These companions of Mark work in NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
How Did The Experiment
Mark and his partner put a rocket in the high-altitude balloon. Then, trapping the egg in the rocket, it was sent into space, and from here, the egg was dropped. Now whether the egg is broken or not, you will have to watch this video of Mark.
Egg Dropped From A Height Of More Than 1 Lakh Feet
According to the information, the rocket installed in the high-altitude balloon was taken to a height of more than 30.5 kilometres, i.e. one lakh feet. The special thing is that this experiment was not done at once but more than once. Mark and his partner failed several times.
This Experiment Was Completed In Three Years
You will be surprised to know this, but let us tell you that it took about 1000 days, i.e. three years, for Mark and his partner to complete this experiment. It was said that while completing the experiment, sometimes the GPS gave problems and sometimes some technical fault used to occur.
In completing the experiment, Mark also had to seek the help of the person who had successfully landed Mars Curiosity on Mars. After completing the experiment, Mark uploaded the video on YouTube on 25 November 2022.
