Series A in 2021
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.
