Nobody knows.
Personally, I don't think it has been.

ladn crew panics! "No there was not supposed the be a cosmic storm! capsule does not have cosmic ray shields!" Capsule explodes, and begins to fall down as a fireball. crashs down. a crater, filles with fire and dust. everybody is crying, mourning. fitting the mood a rain starts then as dust settles down. + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s4eSAwXtCaY/T15u38KQJ4I/AAAAAAAAAQM/1hMSdfy8r_k/s1600/jack_kirby_this_man_this_monster_splash.jpg) | ||

He's tens of thousands of feet from the ground and to view it from an angle would increase the distance from the camera by even more. Just hard to believe that there's cameras that can zoom that far. But I guess we have telescopes so no reason it's not possible. | ||

There's nothing to see way up there, no physical object. Finding it tough to get hyped about this though I am still watching. well, breaking the sound barrier is a thing, if that helps you? :p | ||

It probably is a big deal because his head will freeze on the way down. That's probably detrimental to his health  | ||
