Felix Baumgartner's descent from the edge of space took approximately 10 minutes. After jumping from a height of about 128,000 feet (39,000 meters) during his Red Bull Stratos mission, he free-fell for about four minutes before deploying his parachute. The entire experience, including the free-fall and parachute descent, culminated in a landing on Earth.
No, the Concorde was designed to operate within the Earth's atmosphere and was not capable of flying to the edge of space. It was a supersonic passenger jet that flew at high altitudes, but not high enough to reach the edge of space.
At the edge of space lies the Kármán line, approximately 100 kilometers above Earth's surface, marking the boundary between Earth's atmosphere and outer space. Beyond this point, the atmosphere becomes extremely thin, and traditional aircraft can no longer operate effectively.
The edge of space is typically considered to be around 62 miles (100 kilometers) above sea level, where the Earth's atmosphere becomes very thin. This is known as the Kármán line.
The layers of Earth's atmosphere, starting from the surface and moving upwards, are: troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. The atmosphere gradually transitions into space at the exosphere, which is the outermost layer before reaching the edge of space.
Near space, also known as near-Earth space, refers to the region of space around Earth that extends from the upper atmosphere to the edge of Earth's exosphere. It is characterized by its proximity to the planet and is an area where a mixture of atmospheric and space-like conditions exist. Near space is often studied for its potential applications in fields such as telecommunications, Earth observation, and scientific research.
Felix Baumgartner set five world records during his supersonic freefall jump from the edge of space on October 14, 2012. He broke the records for the highest jump, highest manned balloon flight, longest freefall distance, highest freefall speed, and highest vertical velocity in freefall.
Felix Baumgartner reached the edge of space during his historic Red Bull Stratos mission on October 14, 2012. He ascended to an altitude of approximately 128,000 feet (39 kilometers) using a helium-filled balloon. After a carefully planned ascent, he performed a freefall jump, becoming the first person to break the sound barrier without an aircraft, ultimately landing safely in New Mexico. This mission aimed to advance scientific knowledge and test technologies for future space exploration.
Because technically he wasn't in space. He was on the edge of Earths atmosphere. so gravity was still in effect.

It depends on what you mean. If you mean the international antenna arrays that are located on earth, then they have no distance from Earth. If you mean deep space as in space that has not really been explored yet, one could argue that deep space starts at the edge of our solar system.
Well I am on Earth which is in the Solar System which is closer to the Outer Edge of the Milky Way than to the Galactic Center.

I suppose you mean, where the atmosphere ends. The atmosphere doesn't end abruptly, rather, it gradually becomes thinner. But at a height of a few hundred kilometers, for most practical purposes there is no more atmosphere.
