flat earther would be this balloon ride costs $50,000, only goes 100 000 feet and it is FLAT___________ Other balloons with cameras have gone 127000 feet and it is still FLAT_________________________
Very interesting concept. But aside from the amazing experience of seeing the Earth from 100,000 feet (3 times the height of a typical passenger jet), your video neglected to mention the big difference between a balloon flight and the alternative rocket-powered flights offered by Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic. During a rocket-powered ballistic flight, the passengers will also experience being weightless in space for a few minutes before the vehicle re-enters the Earth's atmosphere, similar to the experience of an astronaut orbiting the Earth. During the slow flight of a balloon, the passengers will not experience weightlessness, although they will experience the amazing views of Earth for hours compared to the minutes of a rocket-powered flight. Also let's not forget that all passengers on Concorde experienced views of Earth from around 64,000 feet at Mach 2 for a lot less money.
The only reason people on the Blue or Virgin rockets feel weightless is because those vehicles are doing a maneuver like going over the hill on a roller coaster. You could ride the "Vomit Comet" for less money, although the view is not good.
... Concorde wasn't profitable, if it was they would've fixed their engineering problems with their fuel tanks, and would've continued to fly. But it wasn't Cost effective to repair their fleet. 🤔
Why don't we plant tree than? The Netherlands government want to stop almost every farmer in there land because the say they care about thee world. But why is Netherlands and Irland the lowest on having trees in Europe, only 10%. Turkey have more than 40%.

for sure this is a cool trip. but 125k seems waayyyy overpriced. i'd say this should cost 10k max per passenger. why does it take that long to develop this, seems pretty straight forward to me. i also like how easy it is to add a parachute as extra safety.

Just make sure no one under 18 is on the ride at the time or at least not bellow the age of consent which varies by state from 16 to 18. When I asked space perspective about the age requirement, the company said that children are welcome though they will likely have a lower age limit of 6-8 years old. Thing is there will be 8 passengers on board and it’s possible that one or more of them will be a child since this is something that children will also want to do.
I do too but I should wait until I turn 18. I’m turning 18 in about 10 1/2 months. If anyone will give me a free ride, I’m in. Preferably when or after I turn 18 so I can join the mile high club no matter what state we launch from.
Comments saying that 100,000 ft isn't enough to see curvature are incorrect. Look up images of what 100,000 ft looks like, or you can search this video "Balloon with GoPro to Near Space" the max height in that video is 90,000 ft and you can see the curvature of earth just like in the pictures the company is showing

Weird it's like this company does not understand physics, they talk about doing research in space and show a sphere of water levitating at 04:00 thus implying that this balloon will allow 0g experiments even though it wouldn't be 0g unless they popped the balloon and free fell.
Found a problem already. It's been stated that we can't get high enough to see a curve please don't start lying. 100k up is nowhere near high enough to so call see that. But I'm interested and the fact that we can see live videos from people inside is pretty cool.
2:57 this witch say thats when you will see the curveture of space at 120000 feet yet theres alread balloons with cameras at that altitude and it is a pancake.
Very cool I would love to go. The pragmatist in me says I bet the business case (way expensive) and the actual engineering will have hurdles. Look at Virgin Galactic and their constant delays, and they don’t have to inflate huge balloons on windy days.
JAJAJAJA, cuando llegue la éra del astroturismo espacial, el terraplanismo se va a desmoronar desde su raíz, ningún terraplanista querrá subirse a esta maravilla para observar la curvatura, nisiquiera si algun rico se los ofrece.

Make a floating Hotel using balloons
what if the top balloon pops or what if a cabel brakes?
That video was visceral
Astrofobics : I think im Good to go now!
Sounds cool, but the price-tag is IMO ridiculous. If they sell tickets, then there will be competition soon.
I hear the view was great too from the Hindenburg!
Is there a bathroom onboard?
Weird it's like this company does not understand physics, they talk about doing research in space and show a sphere of water levitating at 04:00 thus implying that this balloon will allow 0g experiments even though it wouldn't be 0g unless they popped the balloon and free fell.
Found a problem already. It's been stated that we can't get high enough to see a curve please don't start lying. 100k up is nowhere near high enough to so call see that. But I'm interested and the fact that we can see live videos from people inside is pretty cool.
I WANT TO GO TO SPACESHIP AND THROW AN ALIEN PARTY 🌌🌠👽🛸💙❤️ 🚀 😂
2:57 this witch say thats when you will see the curveture of space at 120000 feet yet theres alread balloons with cameras at that altitude and it is a pancake.
Very cool I would love to go. The pragmatist in me says I bet the business case (way expensive) and the actual engineering will have hurdles. Look at Virgin Galactic and their constant delays, and they don’t have to inflate huge balloons on windy days.
how can you go to space in a balloon? is this meant to make us believe? 😂 what they going have curved windows? haha
JAJAJAJA, cuando llegue la éra del astroturismo espacial, el terraplanismo se va a desmoronar desde su raíz, ningún terraplanista querrá subirse a esta maravilla para observar la curvatura, nisiquiera si algun rico se los ofrece.
Los terraplanistas hoy y en ese deseado momento, solo se limitaran a comentar maguferias en un acto de temor y desesperación, y tu eres la prueba viviente de ello.
My boi it’s been 3 years 😂 what we was expecting in 2020 fr 💀
125k? That's my mortgage. No thanks.
Thank you!! This was not only interesting bit uplifting. Very good presentation
A bathroom? In other words; "To boldly go where some men have gone before".
We need to send the leaders of the flat earthers on this space Baloon and live stream it!
All those pics are so misleading.. U will barely barely see the curvature at 100, 000ft
damn he looked like Linus if he gave us space tips instead of sx tips
i mean tech tips
less than 20 people have been to 'this part of the atmosphere'? what? what about the numerous astronauts who've passed by it on the way to space?
Don't all high altitude balloons explode whence they hit a certain altitude? Seems like a bad idea to use an extremely flammable gas and put it in a balloon that can have a high likelihood of exploding. But we cannot use helium as there's been a global shortage.. be interesting to see what happens
