Frank Stephenson Design continues his march towards designing the mobility of the future with his appointment to a design-build project for an aerospace capsule. HALO Space is one of the companies focused on the development of a new form of space tourism, which wants to take passengers on an emission-free journey to the edge of space in a modern capsule that ascends with a stratospheric balloon up to 40 km above Earth.
The first commercial flight of HALO Space is scheduled for 2025, and the aerospace capsule will be capable of carrying up to eight passengers and a capsule pilot on a six-hour journey into the stratosphere. Upon reaching it, they will be able to witness Earth and space in a way that until then, only astronauts and very few private citizens have been able to do before.
Great advances in space tourism

The capsule is the center of the flight experience. It must not only be extremely safe, but also offer the comfort, services and technology necessary for our passengers to enjoy their space flight to the fullest. Enhance this journey with unique resources, design and technology. Frank Stephenson and his team have accumulated decades of experience in designing vehicles that combine the highest standards of quality and luxury, and now they join HALO Space to apply all this knowledge to our project.
