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."

Sorry, I just realized what you meant by that post (calling shotgun on the orbiter, not a fancy "first post"), so I'm replying to undo my "Offtopic" moderation.

So we're finally penetrating into the space tourism market, and we're doing it with a company called Virgin.
