Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo Sneak-Peak

Last week, I shared Virgin Galactic's media-release photos of the first White Knight Two, The Spirit of Steve Fossett. VG also released a number of photos of the first SpaceShipTwo, which will reportedly be named the VSS Enterprise.

FAN-TASIC PHOTOS!! I've been reading your blog for a couple of weeks now and it's really great. You do a great job and your information is very timely...I don't think anyone else has these photos of SS2. Great job!

Those pictures were released nearly six months ago

They were indeed, and what I find surprising is how many people haven't seen them. I posted them here as more of a matter of historical record, and to many it seems that they're breaking news!

Alan,

Your blog is the coolest thing I have seen on the web in a long time. I witnessed SS1's first successful ascent to space (prior to the X-prize flights). I used to poke my head around MHV frequently, but moved away from the area a few years ago. I now live about 25 miles from "Spaceport America" in NM, but miss CA. I truly enjoy your blog and look forward to all of your new entries. Keep up the outstanding work!!
