Space Perspective erreicht einen Meilenstein im Weltraumtourismus: Der erste unbemannte Testflug des Raumballons war erfolgreich. Die Kapsel stieg auf 30 Kilometer Höhe und landete sicher im Golf von Mexiko. Flüge mit besonderer Aussicht werden damit wahrscheinlicher.
Egal nach welcher Definition: Der Weltraum ist in 30 Kilometer Höhe noch lange nicht erreicht. Trotzdem kann es sich das Unternehmen Space Perspective nicht verkneifen, mit dem Weltraum-Traum zu werben. Jetzt hat man die Kapsel für die Luxus-Ballonreise vorgestellt.
Today, Space Perspective, the Florida-based company created to offer in the future balloon-borne tourist flights to near space unveiled their brand new capsule Excelsior-Neptune.
The craft will be used for uncrewed test balloon flights before the completion of a second capsule that would take their first commercial passengers to the stratosphere in 2025.
(Note: whenever you see Spaceflight replace it with the correct term "near space")
