Space Perspective announced that they had successfully tested an uncrewed version of their Neptune-Excelsior capsule, carrying it to an altitude of 30 km by a balloon. The capsule started off the coast of Florida, rose to its final altitude, and then landed in the ocean 6 hours later. The capsule maintained its cabin pressure and stability throughout the flight, demonstrating that it met the requirements for future passenger flights starting in 2025.
