Virgin Galactic Unveils SpaceShipTwo

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Thursday September 28, 2006 @06:29AM from the up-up-and-back-again dept.

BoulderDad writes, "Richard Branson presented a mock-up of the new SpaceShipTwo in New York. From the article: 'Future passengers aboard Virgin Galactic spaceliners can look forward to cushioned reclining seats and lots of windows during suborbital flights aboard SpaceShipTwo, a concept interior of which was unveiled by British entrepreneur Sir Richard Branson Thursday.' The video is worth watching; the spaceport details are more concept than reality, but the depiction of the phases of space flight is very good."

"Its the speed of orbit, and reentry from that speed, that makes this hard." Heh... I'm guessing you won the X Prize for suborbital flight, then? Was it easy?
