For some odd reason, I missed this episode of Science In Action the first time around. Anyways, Aerodynamics and how to breathe in high altitudes is discussed here. Not bad, 2nd half is much better then the first. That's when Chuck Yeager himself makes an appearance Always like it when the host shakes out his arms before resting his chin lol

Contains an interview with Chuck Jaeger, the famous high altitude flying pioneer! Amazing to think that only 13 years hence man was on the moon. In the celebrated words of G W Bush... "We're going to Mars!".
