They say the best things in life are free, and waking up early to enjoy the natural wonder of a sunrise certainly fits the bill. But the sunrise you witness from the ground is nothing like the spectacle of a $75,000 sunrise that you might enjoy from space.

What is a $75,000 sunrise? You’re about to find out.

World View is a space tourism company that carries passengers in a helium balloon-lifted craft to the edge of space. The pods reach heights of around 100,000 feet above the Earth’s surface, and they offer views that only a handful of people on the planet have enjoyed.

Tickets cost $75,000 a piece.

While most of us will never travel that high above land, the company recently recorded a sunrise from space during a test flight, and it is absolutely breathtaking. Even if you never make it up to space to see a sunrise like this in person, you’ll be happy that you at least got to see this incredible sight in a video.

The $75,000 sunrise can be seen in the video embedded below.
