Zephalto - A Journey to the Edge of Space
The details
THE DETAILS
At the heart of the experience is Céleste, a beautifully engineered pressurised capsule designed for a refined, human-centred journey to the edge of space.
Suspended beneath a helium balloon, Céleste ascends gently through the atmosphere — offering a smooth, meditative alternative to traditional rocket launches. There are no G-forces or intense acceleration, just a gradual rise into the stratosphere.
Inside, wide panoramic windows frame uninterrupted views of Earth’s curvature and the thin blue line of the atmosphere. With just six guest seats, the experience is intentionally intimate, with every detail — from seating to lighting — designed for comfort and quiet reflection.

The Journey
Your experience begins at a purpose-built spaceport in France, where pre-flight preparations set the tone for a carefully curated day.
As you ascend, the landscape below softens, the sky deepens, and a sense of stillness takes over.
At 25km above Earth, witness the curvature of the planet and the vastness of space, a rare perspective few will ever experience.
Your descent is gradual and seamless, returning you gently to Earth, followed by a post-flight celebration to mark your journey to the edge of space.
