If you’re seeking a post-COVID adventure, heading to space might not be a bad idea

A Florida company is planning to fly passengers to the edge of space in a high-tech hot air balloon.

‘Space Perspective’ is now taking reservations for its Spaceship Neptune flights in early 2024.

Space explorers and travel adventurers looking to upgrade their bucket list will savor 360-degree views of planet Earth from 20 miles above in a luxurious six-hour trip.

Up to eight passengers will have the ability to ride in the pressurised capsule suspended from an enormous blimp.

“We are really reimagining space,”

The six-hour trips will include a two-hour ascent above the Earth’s atmosphere at 100,000 feet.

However – there’s an expensive catch:

To jump on one of these space flights, tickets will set you back $125,000 U-S per person.
