SpaceShipTwo Breaking The Sound Barrier
Awesome image of Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo while in high altitude. Orbital human spaceflight, any takers?
SpaceShipTwo just finished its third rocket-powered test and reached the highest altitude its ever been at 71,000 feet by hitting a maximum velocity of Mach 1.4. You can see the new reflective coating on the rocket plane's tail booms which perfectly reflects the flame and our Earth.
