Latest Spaceship Neptune news
Launch of Spaceship Neptune could allow people to see earth's curvature
The launch of Spaceship Neptune will allow people to enter the stratosphere on a high-tech hot air balloon to “see the curvature” of the Earth, according to ANU astrophysicist and cosmologist Dr Brad Tucker.
“These are high pressure balloons, we are talking about things that could be storeys tall, way above the ground and then essentially they could attach, not a large basket so to speak, but a large capsule underneath,” he told Sky News.
Passengers on the capsule would be in a "giant pressurised environment” in a voyage which could cost up to $125,000.
“They want to run it in 2024 so they’re marketing essentially half the height to space but you get to see the curvature, you don’t get to experience microgravity.”
“Half the height to space for half the cost.”

Would You Ride a Balloon to Outer Space?
A company called Space Perspective wants to send willing earthlings to the stratosphere via a hydrogen-filled balloon. The balloon would carry a pressurized capsule known as the Spaceship Neptune. Neptune would hold as many as nine people, including a pilot. It would feature long windows, from which passengers could view the earth. Perhaps most importantly, it would also have a bar and a bathroom. Space Perspective says test flights will start early next year. #InsideEdition
