Space Perspective
Series A in 2021
Space Perspective Inc. is a spaceflight company based in Merritt Island, Florida, founded in 2019. It specializes in offering high-altitude balloon trips to the edge of space through its innovative spaceship, Neptune. The company aims to provide unique space travel experiences for tourists, allowing them to witness the curvature of the Earth from a stratospheric altitude. Flights are launched from Florida's Space Coast, specifically from the historic runway used by the Space Shuttle. Space Perspective plans to expand its operations to additional launch sites, including Cecil Spaceport in Florida, Hawaii, and Alaska, among others. The pressurized capsule used for these flights ascends to approximately 100,000 feet, remains at that altitude for two hours, and then descends slowly under the balloon, ultimately splashing down in the ocean for retrieval.
