Zero 2 Infinity has revealed the final design of its ‘bloon’ pod. The company, which is based in Barcelona and specialises in private space transportation, first announced the creation back in 2011. The ’bloon’ pod aims to offer a ‘near space experience’ with a reusable pod and helium-inflated balloon that helps avoid hurting the environment, with Zero 2 Infinity having worked with Elisava school of design and engineering on the plans for the pod.
