Here’s our first ship getting its livery installed: one of the last steps before Integrated Vehicle Ground Testing. Exciting to see this ship getting ready for the next stage.

We built it. You name it. As we prepare the next generation of spaceships, one of them needs a name, and we’re asking the world to choose it. Details → #nameaspaceship#

🇺🇸 America turns 250 today. Our country was founded on the belief that the next horizon is always worth pursuing. That same spirit lives in every flight we fly and every spaceship we build. To everyone working to lift humanity higher, thank you. Here's to the next 250. Happy birthday, America. #America250#

We’re excited to welcome Scott Dilloff as VP of Global Astronaut Sales and Partnerships. He brings standout experience in business development and luxury hospitality to Virgin Galactic. Scott will lead our end-to-end revenue engine, driving demand and growing key markets for private Astronaut flights. Previously, he served as CEO of Crenn Dining Group, building partnerships with brands like Dior and Waldorf Astoria, and held senior roles across several high‑growth hospitality companies. Scott’s high‑touch customer expertise will help power our Spacefarer experience and accelerate the future of human spaceflight.

Last week, our Astronaut community flew in from around the world for our “Behind the Hangar Door” Spaceship Factory Experience. They stepped inside our Factory to see, for the first time, the next-generation spaceship that will fly them to space. With our top engineering and manufacturing leaders guiding the discussions, our Astronauts got a firsthand look at the expertise, precision engineering, quality manufacturing, and unwavering commitment to safety behind every spaceship. They also heard how work is progressing in The Forge, our new rocket motor production facility currently under construction. The energy at the factory said it all. Watching this incredible community stand alongside the team building the new spaceship that will fly them to space was a reminder of why we do this work. A spaceflight with Virgin Galactic is a chance to see the world differently, and that perspective is a key part of the adventure. We couldn’t imagine a better group to share this with.
