Founded by Kemel Kharbachi, EOS-X SPACE has invested over USD 23 million in engineering and development across Spain and the UAE. Backed by a multi-million dollar investment round led by US investment bank FTI Capital Advisor, the company anticipates robust revenue growth of 220% over the next five years.
EOS-X SPACE’s space travel initiative promises a unique experience, featuring pressurized capsules propelled by zero-emission helium-filled balloons. Each flight accommodates eight passengers and one pilot, soaring to altitudes exceeding 40 kilometers. The journey spans five hours, including ascent, peak-altitude cruising, and descent, offering luxurious amenities such as ergonomic seating, panoramic windows, onboard facilities, adjustable lighting, and even a bar. Costs for these exclusive space trips range from $160,550 to $214.
The company enhances the space travel experience with pre-flight immersions at the SpaceHub Complex on La Isla de la Cartuja in Seville, complemented by luxury accommodations and bespoke services. Plans for Abu Dhabi departures are forthcoming, expanding EOS-X SPACE’s footprint in the burgeoning space tourism industry.
EOS-X SPACE’s initiative not only aims to elevate the concept of space tourism but also to capitalize on the growing demand for unique travel experiences that blend luxury with cutting-edge technology. With Seville and Abu Dhabi as launch sites, EOS-X SPACE positions itself at the forefront of commercial space travel, offering a glimpse into the future of accessible, high-altitude exploration.
As EOS-X SPACE prepares to usher in a new era of stratospheric tourism, the company underscores Spain’s emergence as a hub for space innovation, leveraging its strategic partnerships and innovative spacecraft designs to redefine the boundaries of private space travel.
