In 2016, in California, the company Virgin Galactic, founded by Richard Branson, presented a new model of the spaceship. SpaceShipTwo is designed to send wealthy customers into space. To see the universe with your own eyes, you have to pay $250,000.

Stephen Hawking, famed cosmologist and physicist, said that he would happily fly on a new spaceship. The scientist named the vehicle Virgin Spaceship Unity.

The first SpaceShipTwo was seriously damaged during the tests in 2014. The unsuccessful attempt to launch the spaceship affected the reputation of the brand, and customers, who had previously bought tickets for original entertainment, handed them back.

However, the company quickly recovered. In 2015, Virgin Galactic conducted a successful test, and people began to trust it again.
