VIRGIN GALACTIC: News

As one of less than 100 Accredited Space Agents in the world, every now and then I will be sharing interesting facts I've learned, my personal experiences, and any news regarding space travel.


Virgin Galactic has recently opened and launched its Spaceport in New Mexico! This monumental event for space travel was marked with grand festivities graced by Sir Richard Branson himself.

"Looking skyward, more than 800 guests marveled at Virgin Galactic’s commercial space vehicles as they soared through the skies of southern New Mexico during the dedication ceremonies of Virgin Galactic’s new home at Spaceport America. The flight of WhiteKnightTwo and SpaceShipTwo was the highlight of a spectacular ceremony which featured the dedication of the Sir Norman Foster-designed building and announcements of new scientific and educational customers for the world’s first commercial space line."
