Space Perspective Inc. is a spaceflight company based in Merritt Island, Florida, founded in 2019. The company specializes in offering suborbital trips to the edge of space through its spacecraft, Neptune, which utilizes a high-altitude balloon for ascent. Passengers travel in a pressurized capsule that ascends to an altitude of several kilometers, where they can experience a two-hour period of weightlessness and panoramic views of Earth. After the experience, the capsule descends slowly, landing in the ocean for retrieval by a support vessel. Space Perspective's primary Operations Center is located on Florida's Space Coast, near NASA's Kennedy Space Center, with additional launch sites planned in various locations, including Cecil Spaceport in Florida, Hawaii, and Alaska, as part of its expansion strategy.
