"Thrill seekers can now travel to the edge of space space in a giant balloon,
with a seat costing £100,000.
Space Perspective is offering panoramic views of the Earth from luxury capsule
featuring an open bar and a toilet after completing its first, successful test
flight.
Deposits for the eight-seat trips, which are reported to begin at the end of
this year, start from $1,000 (£789).
News of the capsule was first revealed on X by the company in February when
they described the craft as having “the roomiest interior of any human
spaceflight capsule ever made”.
The balloon will reportedly travel to the edge of space and sit 18 miles above
the Earth’s atmosphere.
Space Perspective stressed the importance of safety in their tourist ship,
which they have claimed will set a new record for the number of people taken to
the edge of space."
