Branson to take balloon ride to edge of space
Briefly

Richard Branson announced he will fly to the edge of space aboard Space Perspective's capsule in 2025, driven by his passion for adventure and support for entrepreneurs.
Branson stated, 'Some of the most magnificent experiences of my life have happened on ballooning expeditions. I'm excited to support Space Perspective in its journey.'
The Space Perspective flight promises a more civilized experience compared to sub-orbital trips, featuring restroom facilities, a bar, and a smooth journey, lasting six hours.
The capsule, Neptune, will hold eight 'Explorers' and a captain, operating at a gentle ascent of 12 mph, contrasting the rapid flights of Virgin Galactic.
