The American company has tested a capsule capsule for tourist flights to the stratosphere
The private American company World View tested the capsule model, which is planned to be used for tourist flights to the stratosphere. For test launch, a prototype was built on a scale of 1:10. He was parachuted at a height of 30624 meters, after which a successful landing was performed.
The company plans to conduct tests with a full -sized capsule in 2016, and the first commercial flight with passengers on board is already in 2017. The cost of a ticket for a flight to the stratosphere is 75 thousand dollars.
