Envelope fact

“To push the envelope”, meaning to exceed current levels of performance or to innovate, emerged in a corporate jargon context in the late 1980s. But the term originated about a decade before in aviation circles: “Pushing the envelope” here signified achieving higher altitudes or testing a craft's capabilities in a flight test.
