There aren't many posts on their blog lately. But, I found some stuff on Twitter. This is a pic of their airship design that eventually will get passengers to the Dark Sky Station. The Station will be frickin' huge, more than a mile in diameter, if memory serves.
The Dark Sky Station will be over 100k feet in altitude. It will serve as a base between the ground, and their Airship to Orbit airship. Will any of it work?
In my opinion, he has a plan that might work. Only time will tell if it really does work. Interesting thing about this is that in the Martian atmosphere, a thing like this could fly. It may not even need helium, since the Martian atmosphere is carbon dioxide, which much denser than oxygen and nitrogen. A simple nitrogen oxygen airship might float on Mars, perhaps.
