Courtesy Virgin GalacticVirgin Galactic also announced this supersonic jet concept recently passed a mission concept review, which confirmed that the concept"can meet the high-level requirements and objectives of the mission."
"We are excited to complete the Mission Concept Review and unveil this initial design concept of a high speed aircraft, which we envision as blending safe and reliable commercial travel with an unrivaled customer experience," said George Whitesides, Virgin Galactic's chief space officer.The Virgin Galactic aircraft is one of a few supersonic jet ideas currently in the design stages.
The concept is now ready to progress to the next phase of design, which Virgin Galactic says will involve defining the specifics of how the aircraft will operate, not to mention looking at potential challenges including maintenance, noise, emissions and economics.
