Ballooning In A Faraday.

Part eighteen space cruising had said it taken decades ballooning a launch into space is easiest way for astronauts to get into lower orbit with large panels or orbiting earth why not?
A company has finally got a design depending more on hot air than rocket science this arizona start-up company will balloon fly passengers in daylight up to edge of space goes black, World View, has unveiled plans for a balloon ride to the stratosphere, offering passengers about two hours of space-like views from 19 miles above Earth. Its a new space orbiter uses a balloon this could even seal an orbiter for use as a hotel, some egg like designs emerge more of a light pressure aircraft for to manufacture, even laser proof.
While it's not quite space that starts at 62 miles the plan requires approval from the Federal Aviation Administration, which oversees commercial space. Fly to the edge of space near weightless as they will let you sip a drink at on-board bar while soaring 19 miles above Earth. World View Enterprises announced plans Tuesday to send people up in a capsule, lifted 19 miles by a high-altitude balloon. The flight would take 90 minutes to go up at about 1,000 feet a minute, set sail up high for 2 hours. The luxury capsule will allow passengers to walk around and get a drink from the bar. The latest space tourism venture aims to send paying customers to the edge of space and give them the same awe inspiring view that adventurer Felix Baumgartner stared down upon last year - all for $75,000 a ticket. 
To the edge of space: World View Enterprises announced plans Tuesday to send people up in a capsule, lifted 19 miles by a high-altitude balloon. Jane Poynter, CEO of the Tucson, Ariz.-based company, said the price for the four-hour ride would be $75,000 The company expects to begin flight tests of a demonstration vehicle this year in Arizona and plans to start selling tickets at $75,000 per person within a few months, said Chairwoman and President Jane Poynter - with commercial flights by 2016.


'There are balloons this size that have already flown up many, many times for decades,' Poynter said. 'From a technical point of view this is incredibly doable, low risk. 'The selling point is the view of the Earth and seeing its curve, she said. The venture isn't designed for passengers to experience weightlessness . Indeed, the flight will be more like that of Red Bull daredevil Felix Baumgartner, the Austrian adventurer who leapt from a balloon 24 miles above the Earth, smashing the sound barrier during his supersonic skydive descent as he landed safely yea OK ?
Space flight has been achieved in many crafts. As here is a image of a fun casting by space cruising, this is a small inexpensive craft with a helmet camera. These are done for display pieces as they are called done its. Kits for space are reasonable and with power full RC one can make there very own space clip on a dollar and dime may even be called  NASA as one can zoom up on satellites. The selling point is the view of the Earth and seeing its curve, she said. The venture isn't designed for passengers to experience weightlessness. This Lift-off Initially, six passengers and two pilots would be aboard a pressurized capsule that is still under development. 'We promise we won’t open the door and have you jump back to Earth,' Poynter joked. The flight would take '90 minutes' to go up at about 1,000 feet a minute, set sail up high for 2 hours with an emphasis on smooth riding, hit an altitude of 19 miles and then come back down in 40 minutes, Poynter said. 
The capsule's interior will be roomy enough for its eight passengers to walk around and even get a drink at an on-board bar - but unfortunately there will be experiencing of weightlessness. ‘Seeing the Earth hanging in the ink-black void of space will help people realize our connection to our home planet and to the universe around us, and will surely offer a transformation experience to customers,' Jane Poynter, world view's chief executive officer, said in a core statement. This picture is of a reentry vehicle with a docking port for International space station. 
This flight would take 90 minutes to go up at about 1,000 feet a minute, set sail up high for 2 hours with an emphasis on smooth riding, and then come back down in 40 minutes. 
Pilot Felix Baumgartner of Austria jumps out of the capsule during the final manned flight for Red Bull Stratos on October 14, 2012 in space. 'We look forward to pioneering this new, accessible and affordable spaceflight regime, and to sharing the breathtaking, once-in-a-lifetime experience with people from around the globe. 'By comparison, rides aboard Space ShipTwo – a suborbital six-passenger, two-pilot vehicle owned by Virgin Galactic, an offshoot of Richard Branson’s London-based Virgin Group is expected to reach about 68 miles. 
At that altitude, passengers will experience a few minutes of weightlessness in addition to seeing the curvature of the Earth set against the black sky of space. World View capsules would be propelled by a 40 million cubic-foot (1.1 million cubic-meter) helium balloon and a steerable parafoil, an inflatable wing-shaped parachute - which would steer them gently to the ground once they disconnected from the giant helium balloon. Outside magazine space expert Scott Pace, a former NASA associate administrator now space policy director at George Washington University, agreed that this is technically feasible.
