UK-based sales and marketing representation company Van Isacker Exclusive (VIE) has added French space travel firm Zephalto to its collection.
Zephalto offers six-hour flights in a pressurised capsule, lifted 25 miles high by a hydrogen-powered balloon, offering passengers a ‘culinary and astronomical experience’.
