Richard Branson’s company Virgin Galactic completed a supersonic test flight of its SpaceShipTwo passenger rocket ship.
The flight was the first return to the air for the company since a fatal crash in 2014. ---- Fascinating stuff, but it's a bit pricey at $250k Last edited by bitontheslide; 06-04-2018 at 09:18 PM. |
