World View Experience – take a trip to space in a balloon

Space, the great mystery. We’re all a little obsessed with what’s up there but the only people allowed to go are those who have special training, usually. One company wants to change that. The World View Experience has plans to offer balloon rides into space.

This is an interesting idea. The company claims to be developing a way for people to just step onto a craft that will gently lift them into space, but still within the atmosphere. You’ll be high enough to see the curve of the earth and much of the world below. You can spend hours up there, just enjoying the vastness of the universe

It would be pretty amazing if it comes to fruition but this isn’t something that will likely be available to just anyone. Although the cost isn’t explicitly laid out, it will likely be tens of thousands of dollars. You can contact the company for a direct quote.
