Virgin Galactic Completes 1st Powered Test Flight Since Fatal 2014 Crash



Virgin Galactic's second SpaceShipTwo, the VSS Unity,
performed its first rocket-powered test flight over California's Mojave Desert on April 5, 2018.
The test flight did not aim to reach space.

MOJAVE, Calif. — Virgin Galactic made a triumphant return to powered flight today (April 5) with a successful test of the company's SpaceShipTwo VSS Unity suborbital vehicle. It was the company's first powered flight in nearly 3.5 years, following the tragic loss of SpaceShipTwo VSS Enterprise on Oct 31, 2014.
VSS Unity was dropped from its WhiteKnightTwo mothership from about 50,000 feet (15,000 meters) over the mountains about 20 miles (32 kilometers) north of the Mojave Air and Space Port in California. Pilots David Mackay and Mark "Forger" Stucky fired Unity's hybrid engine for 30 seconds, boosting the vehicle to a top speed of Mach 1.87 and a maximum altitude of 84,271 feet (25,686 m) before gliding back to the runway at the spaceport, Virgin Galactic representatives said.
During the descent, the crew deployed SpaceShipTwo's feather system, which reconfigures the ship into a high-drag shuttlecock by moving its twin tail booms. The feather will be used to soften the vehicle's re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere during spaceflight



"@virgingalactic back on track,ꞌꞌ Virgin Galactic founder Richard Branson tweeted after today's test. "Successful powered flight, Mach 1.6. Data review to come, then on to the next flight. Space feels tantalizingly close now."

here's a feel good story to start the day

"One of the best moments every year from the Par 3 Tournament at the Masters is watching players let their children (and sometimes, grandchildren) hit tee shots and make putts on the final hole of play in the annual challenge.
Jack Nicklaus' family has, as you might expect, good golf genes. No further proof needed after watching his grandson, Gary, hit a hole-in-one during the Par 3 Tournament Wednesday, CBS Sports writes."
