After all, the spacecraft must be this color!
Virgin Group Chairman Richard Branson, a space travel business Virgin Galactic (Virgin Galactic), announced the third -generation spacecraft "VSS IMAGINE".
The design is the former space passenger aircraft "Space Ship 2" and Sokkuri, but the coloring of Gingiragin is a very different one.This is resistant to heat, and when you go out of the earth in outer space, it seems to have the intention to mirror the surrounding scenery.
The aircraft is a modular type, and it seems to be a "Spaceship III" -class vehicle designed to make maintenance and replacement easier.
"VSS IMAGINE" will be conducting a glide flight test at the Space Port America, a detachment site in New Mexico in May this year.Last time we reached 80km above the ground, so we may fly above it.However, it seems that it will not go to outer space yet, but if they do well, they will aim for 400 flights a year.
As of December 2018, I was planning to be able to board with a ticket of $ 250,000 per person (about 28 million yen).I'm glad if it costs about 280,000 yen ...
