Want to fly into space? Virgin Galactic is the world’s first spaceline. It gives you the opportunity to become one of the first ever non-professional astronauts. But first they will have to build a spaceship. This video is a test flight video, enjoy.

Virgin’s vast experience in aviation, adventure, luxury travel and cutting-edge design combined with the unique technology developed by Burt Rutan will ensure an unforgettable experience unlike any other available to mankind. With safety at the forefront, our unique spacecraft is being designed at Rutan’s base in Mojave, California alongside a concerted research and development programme.
