Now here is something that you don’t get an opportunity to see every day. This short video captures the amazing view of a sunrise caught from the edge of space. It was shot on a recent test flight for World View, a company that is preparing to take travelers into the upper atmosphere aboard a specially designed balloon. World View is gearing up to start offering flights possibly as early as 2015 or 2016. This is a sneak preview of what passengers aboard their capsule will see.
