Spaceship Factory

The Spaceship Company, the joint venture between Virgin Galactic and Scaled Composites established to build VG's fleet, opened a major new factory in Mojave, California, recently-- the latest big step in the development of a commercial space industry.

VG will initially fly its fleet out of Spaceport America in New Mexico, but the vehicles will be built in California, with final assembly and scheduled maintenance to be performed in the new facility.
