Space tourism company Halo Space has unveiled its capsule design for zero-emission commercial flights in stratospheric balloons. With each ticket worth up to 150,000 euros, a pilot and eight passengers will enter a pressurized cabin and fly to an altitude of up to 40 kilometers. Passengers will enjoy the curvature of the Earth and views of space.
The company is currently undergoing extensive trials and has completed five test flights, the next of which will take place in Saudi Arabia in June. The new design aims to integrate landscape, comfort, fashion and safety, attracting the famous designer Frank Stephenson to join.
Despite the hefty price tag, Halo plans to serve 10,000 passengers by 2030 and plans to launch flights from multiple countries.
