In a groundbreaking revelation, Space Perspective, the vanguard of carbon-neutral spaceflight experiences, has unveiled the first images of its Spaceship Neptune capsule structure—a testament to the pinnacle of luxury space tourism. This visionary spacecraft, designed for tourism flights under the awe-inspiring SpaceBalloon, promises an unparalleled journey that combines opulence and cutting-edge technology.
The spherical capsule, adorned with the reserve descent system and the colossal SpaceBalloon, forms the avant-garde Spaceship Neptune. Set to undergo upcoming uncrewed test flights, this capsule marks a significant milestone, propelling the company toward crewed test flights scheduled for the next year. Following the successful launch of a capsule simulator to space under a SpaceBalloon in 2021, Space Perspective’s teams have tirelessly refined the capsule’s design and manufacturing, meticulously evaluating safety parameters and off-nominal scenarios.
Distinguished by its carbon-neutral commitment, Space Perspective’s test capsule, a precursor to the sumptuous Space Lounge, is poised to redefine commercial space travel. The capsule’s instrumentation, employed in the upcoming uncrewed tests, will play a pivotal role in shaping the development of a commercial-grade capsule.

Spaceship Neptune, the epitome of accessibility, sustainability, and safety, challenges conventional space travel norms. Unlike its counterparts, the Spaceship Neptune’s capsule remains securely attached to the SpaceBalloon throughout the entire journey, ensuring a seamless and cost-effective space odyssey. With its claim to the largest windows ever flown to space, this spacecraft, accommodating eight Explorers and a Captain, promises an astronaut experience par excellence—gazing at Earth from the cosmic abyss.
The manufacturing prowess of Space Perspective takes center stage, with most processes taking place in-house at its Melbourne, Fla. facility. The intricate integration of components unfolds at the capsule assembly facility near Cape Canaveral, emphasizing the company’s commitment to precision and quality.
The spherical capsule’s architectural marvel is a result of a harmonious collaboration between three key engineering teams—Structures, led by Ryon Warren (former Boeing), Manufacturing, under the guidance of Vincent Bachet (former SpaceX), and Design, spearheaded by Dan Window (former PriestmanGoode). Taber MacCallum, a human spaceflight veteran and the Founder, Co-CEO, and CTO of Space Perspective, hails this internal partnership as “one of the greatest iterative collaborations I have ever seen.”
This year witnessed the inauguration of the Seely SpaceBalloon™ Factory, a state-of-the-art facility at the company’s headquarters, underlining Space Perspective’s commitment to advancing space tourism. Additionally, the imminent arrival of the Marine Spaceport Voyager at the Space Coast promises to bolster test flight operations, further cementing the company’s leadership in the space travel arena.
Embarking on a celestial journey aboard Spaceship Neptune comes at a price of $125,000, with a waitlist deposit of $1,000. As the company experiences a surge in demand, with over 1,650 tickets sold, it anticipates a price increase next year, reflecting the growing enthusiasm for this unprecedented luxury space travel experience. As the countdown to lift-off begins, Space Perspective invites adventurous souls to join the ranks of Explorers destined to witness the Earth’s splendor from the vantage point of the cosmic abyss.
