And so, just the initial lift off from Sugarloaf to cross the Atlantic, as we were pushing into the jet stream, this enormous balloon -- the top of the balloon ended up going at a couple of hundred miles an hour, the capsule that we were in at the bottom was going at maybe two miles an hour, and it just took off.
Als wir nach dem ersten Start in Sugarloaf zur Atlantiküberquerung mit diesem riesigen Ballon in den Jet Stream kamen, flog der obere Teil des Ballons mit mehreren hundert Stundenkilometern, während unsere bemannte Kapsel vielleicht nur 3 km/h schnell war. Da ging es wirklich los.
