Helium balloon will take space tourists into the atmosphere - Telegraph
Near-space flight experience, Inbloon
A helium balloon that can reach the Earth's stratosphere will give people the opportunity to become 'space tourists'. The 'bloon' can climb to a height of 36km, offering wannabe-astronauts the chance to glimpse the sun dawning on the earth.
It's described as a 'near-spaceship' and each trip will cost 90,000 pounds per person, with the journey lasting about five hours.
Included in that time is a three hour cruise at an altitude where the blackness of space can be seen above and the curvature of the earth below.
