SPACE EXPERIENCE

Suborbital Space flight

VIRGIN GALACTIC

Fly to suborbital space on Virgin Galactic’s horizontally-launched SpaceShipTwo. Experience weightlessness as you cross the Kármán line and view the curvature of the Earth.

EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION

Board the SpaceShipTwo at Spaceport America in New Mexico, USA for your liftoff to space. Rather than a traditional vertical rocket launch , you will take off from an aircraft runway under the wings of the White Knight Two (“the Mothership”), a custom-built dual-fuselage jet aircraft. White Knight Two will carry you to about 50,000 feet, at which point SpaceShipTwo will separate from White Knight Two and ignite its rocket engine to launch you into suborbital space.

In space, you will experience a few minutes of weightlessness while you gaze out the many windows of the SpaceShipTwo at the Earth below you. You will then come back to Earth and land as you would on a normal airplane flight.
