About this listen
Aviation was born with the balloon when, in 1783, the first manned hot air balloon rose off the French soil. But ever since the Wright brothers made their first flight out of Kitty Hawk in 1903, the balloon has been vastly overshadowed by the airplane.
With the advent of space tourism, the balloon could rise again to the forefront of aviation! Join Matthew and I as we talk about the company Space Perspective and their goal to bring tourists to space suspended from a balloon.
