Space Perspective is one of the first companies exploring space tourism and is accepting crypto as payment. It's unveiled the designs for the Spaceship Neptune passenger capsule, which will rise to the edge of space using a huge balloon.
“It is hard to overstate the importance of this design breakthrough, Space Perspective is setting the standard in space tourism,” says Jane Poynter, Founder, Co-CEO and Chief Experience Officer of Space Perspective.
Perhaps equally important – especially in an age of viral obsessions and short-sighted environmental policies –, Space Perspective aims to be the first and potentially only carbon neutral, zero-emission way to space for the foreseeable future. Commercial flights to 100,000 feet are targeted to begin in late 2024, with 600 tickets sold to date. With the first year of seats completely reserved, Space Perspective is currently taking reservations for 2025 and beyond. Tickets are priced at $125,000 per person, and bookings are made with a fully refundable deposit beginning at $1,000.
