Atmospheric Pressure Readings 0 - 70k altitude

I started looking at the new atmo, and as far as I can tell densities changed significantly, including floor and ceiling, from the old system.

So, I snagged a rocket, went straight up, and recorded the PresMat's values (heights are approximate within 50 meters low - 200m high):

1m (Launchpad): 100.1008

1000m: 87.0791

3000m: 63.4198

5000m: 45.1837

10,000m: 17.5661

15,000m: 6.5229

18,000m: 3.6307 (This is when I can start seriously pushing the speed on a spaceplane)

20,000m: 2.4882

22,000m: 1.668

24,000m: 1.1684

26,000m: 0.7971 (Roughly where my 2 radial intake/1 turbojet SP's are cutting out completely on engines)

30,000m: 0.3897

35,000m: 0.1628

40,000m: 0.0767

45,000m: 0.0344

50,000m: 0.0147

55,000m: 0.006

60,000m: 0.0022

68,400m: Vacuum

I was nearly convinced they'd moved the atmo ceiling down to 60k with how things were reacting. XD But, in case anyone's curious as well, figured I'd just drop this off here.
