The video shows the take off and re-entry of the suborbital rocket, which rapidly fell from the sky and then slowed to just over four miles per hour once it reached 3,600 feet above the ground, making a soft landing in the desert under controlled thruster power.

The Thread LIFE AT 800 FEET For this year's New York Issue, we concentrated on the tiny sliver of New York life that happens 800 feet or more above the ground, turning the magazine on its side to reflect the height of the tallest 21 buildings in the city.

A client climbs in and is suspended horizontally four feet above the ground for 25 minutes — Vernon, a certified medical hypnotist, uses this version of her "theta rig," which she designed, to ease the person into a meditative "theta state," the brain-wave frequency reached during yoga and orgasm.

"It's clearly a basement but people living there want to believe they belong to the above-the-ground world," the director of "Parasite," Bong Joon-ho, said last year at a news conference in with South Korean Media after his film was invited to the Cannes Film Festival.

Likewise, the ceiling above the ground-floor living room is not quite a ceiling but an open metal grid, painted in the same deep green as the walls; the caging forms the floor of Santomà's second-floor guest quarters, with a mattress on the ground that seems to hover in space.

Given you (the viewer) cannot accept that this (a walk down the wall) is physically happening, you as a watcher alter your own place in space; immediately you get launched above the ground in a desperate effort to help explain how this could be happening, a person walking down the side of a building.

In a couple of the images, the crates, too small for the dazed inhabitants to lie down in, were suspended above the ground, and the torsos and hands of the human attendants around them craned and caressed at each crate's tilt and sway: gestures of care within the constraints of an inescapably cruel act.

ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING:Called the Skyslide, the chute will be made of clear glass four inches thick, sit about 1,000 feet above the ground, and totally one-up other observation decks that just have that scary all-glass platform that creates the illusion of standing on air (like the one at Chicago's Willis Tower).

This current of fast-moving air at about 35,000 feet above the ground has been steering a never-ending series storms into the West Coast, where California's mountains have picked up a crazy 500 inches of snow so far, and then moved across the U.S. in a way that has cut off flow of frigid air from the Arctic.

Developer Bethesda's games are infamous for their plentiful bugs, and while they can be easy to overlook in a typical video game, I found them significantly more jarring in VR. It's unsettling seeing a body crumple after you strike it with a deadly blow, only for the corpse to remain floating a few feet above the ground.

At a recent arms-trade exposition, an official at the company told The New York Times that the shell contains nine submunitions, each roughly the shape and size of a soda can and each with a fuse that sends out radio waves to measure how far it is above the ground and to tell the fuse when to detonate.

What they couldn't know as they were hurtling through the air is that before they were sent on their great trip, a single beaver — named "Geronimo" for the purposes of this experiment, because Americans are just hilarious — had suffered this same fate repeatedly in numerous trial runs in which he was catapulted from 23 meters above the ground.

Though the house of the artist Anselm Reyle, 212, and the architect Tanja Lincke, 240, resembles a massive Brutalist concrete Greek cross, inside one has the sense of floating in the air: The structure is balanced 2150 feet above the ground on sturdy concrete pillars that give the building views over the wide, slow-moving Spree River.

He invited me to visit him at his lab at the Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium down in Cocodrie, a speck of a place at the end of Louisiana State Highway 56, where spiffy vacation homes and battered trailers perch on pillars that elevate them 12 feet or more above the ground to get through hurricane flooding.

"A Hole in the Case" ends with a laugh: After realizing that Josh is also lonely, Lavinia invites him to a ball that's just the two of them (allowing for the brief gag of Josh holding Lavinia so that she can rest her head on his shoulder as they dance, which means her feet are, well, feet above the ground) and propositions him.

The researchers had assumed that the temperature of human skin was 90 degrees Fahrenheit (it was closer to 19623 degrees on a really cold day); they had placed the containers 33 feet above the ground, where wind speeds are higher (rather than the height of a person); and they took their measurements where it is far colder than where most people live.
