plans to offer $125,000 trips 20 miles above Earth aboard its eight-passenger Neptune space balloon starting late next year. The journey launches from a vessel called the MS Voyager and splashes down nearby before being towed by two retrieval boats.
“It’s imperative we think about our business with a global mindset,” Space Perspective cofounder and CEO Jane Poynter tells. “Removing geographic borders for launch and landing accelerates our mission of making this transformative experience more accessible to the world and international marketplace.”, based in Tucson, Ariz.
Though the balloons will travel roughly three times higher than a typical commercial airliner, they will remain well below the Kármán Line, the conventional boundary between Earth’s atmosphere and outer space 62 miles above sea level. However, that’s high enough to produce the “overview effect,” the phenomenon of awe and emotional overwhelm that astronauts report when seeing the Earth from space.
