Virgin Galactic Unveils SpaceShipTwo

Posted by ryuzaki0 on 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."

    He's using it to steal people's land and homes in the US for a rocket launch site. Entrepreneur, impressive, space, cool, but everything he's ever done is wiped out from stealing peoples homes.
