Zephalto manned flight aboard Lucy Zephalto 2024-10-23 | We're one step closer to stratospheric travel! On october 11th, 2024, Zephalto achieved a historic performance with our latest flight ascending to 6000 meters in a pressurized capsule lifted by a reusable hydrogen balloon. Our skilled pilots, including our founder Vincent Farret d'Astiès, reached an altitude of 6000 meters before gliding through the sky for 5 hours. Departing from the airfield in Albi, this flight is not only a historic one but also serves as a strategic proof of concept, a demonstrator aimed at validating Zephalto's technology and its capability for flights. Finally, reaching this altitude helped us contribute to scientific research by conducting experiments on greenhouse gases, a long-term goal for our company. We’d like to extend our thanks to the partners that made this flight possible : La Région Occitanie, la Mairie d'Albi, GROUPE MAGELLIM, CNES, M CAPITAL, Expansion, Airbus Développement, Bpifrance
