The capsule is called Excelsior. Several flights are planned for this year, with plans to carry several customers on board for a unique experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of these will be carried out from the same location, off the coast of Cape Canaveral. The capsule will fly over the Atlantic. Space Perspective&#8217;s chief technology officer and co-founder, Taber MacCallum, showed progress, confirming that the balloon that will propel the craft into the upper atmosphere has been completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Taber-MacCallum-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-557016\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Taber-MacCallum-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Taber-MacCallum-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Taber-MacCallum-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Taber-MacCallum.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Taber MacCallum<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3 key elements for the launch of Space Perspective<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first element is already ready: the capsule that will carry the ship&#8217;s guests and crew. The second is also ready: the balloon that will ensure the ship reaches high altitudes; it is planned to be able to reach the upper atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recommendation: <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/varda-space-y-rocket-lab-logran-un-aterrizaje-espacial-unico-en-utah\/\">Varda Space and Rocket Lab achieve a unique space landing in Utah<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third element is a spacecraft named Marine Spaceport Voyager. This will carry both the balloon and the capsule. The launch site will be the corporation&#8217;s facilities in Louisiana. From there, everything will be transported to <strong>Port Canaveral.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despu\u00e9s de que lleven la c\u00e1psula y el globo, se van a comenzar a ensamblar los equipos terrestres para realizar el lanzamiento. Este proceso puede llegar a tardar entre 4 y 6 semanas, pero si surgen inconvenientes puede <strong>tardar un par de semanas m\u00e1s<\/strong>. Como se trata de un lanzamiento de prueba esto es normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the capsule and balloon are delivered, ground equipment will begin to be assembled for the launch. This process can take between four and six weeks, but if any issues arise, it could take a couple more weeks. Since this is a test launch, this is normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Excelsior capsule can reach near space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Space Perspective&#8217;s goal is to create comfortable and safe capsules to offer its services to interested individuals. The services would involve elevating them to an altitude of 100,000 feet inside the capsule. At that height, they would be able to enjoy a unique and impressive view and enjoy the experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/excelsior-nave-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"excelsior nave space perspective\" class=\"wp-image-557014\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/excelsior-nave-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/excelsior-nave-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/excelsior-nave-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cerebrodigital.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/excelsior-nave.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The capsule will be close to leaving Earth&#8217;s atmosphere, and those inside will no longer see the blue sky. When Space Perspective was founded in 2019, they said their goal would be to give as many people as possible the opportunity to experience something similar to what space travel feels like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, these trips will be much safer, and passengers won&#8217;t have to worry about thousands of details like an astronaut. They also won&#8217;t need to undergo prior training to withstand G-forces, as they won&#8217;t be facing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqBwgKMP-Uqwsw_J_DAw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here<\/a> <\/strong>to follow us on Google News and receive more news and updates on what&#8217;s happening around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Tuesday, February 20, Space Perspective shared photographs of the capsule they will be using for test flights.
