Virgin Galactic s big space launch Sunday: Why you should pay attention

Virgin Galactic s big space launch Sunday: Why you should pay attention CNET 4 hrs ago Virgin Galactic s next flight is over 15 years in the making. Shortly after sunrise this Sunday, July 11, Virgin Galactic s SpaceshipTwo Unity and the carrier aircraft VMS Eve will take off from a lonely runway amid one of the most desolate stretches of desert in North America. A full crew will be aboard the suborbital spaceplane for the first time, including two pilots, three employees and the company s billionaire founder, Richard Branson. One of the crew members, Virgin s chief astronaut instructor, Beth Moses, will be making the trip for the second time. But the star of the show will be the 70-year-old Branson, who has invested over 16 years and more than $1 billion to finally make the short trip to the edge of space, experience weightlessness and gaze upon Earth as only a privileged few hundred other humans have.
