Virgin Galactic Is Weeks Away From Reaching a Huge Milestone
Being a space tourism company still in its infancy, Virgin Galactic (NYSE: SPCE) stock was as hard hit as any other tourism operation when the coronavirus pandemic swept the globe. In a hopeful sign for Virgin Galactic, plans are nearing completion to carry out its final test flights and potentially open its commercial service to the public. The vertically integrated company has spent the last two years preparing for the day it can send up founder Sir Richard Branson, and these next two suborbital flight tests will prove whether its efforts to start its commercial service are on course.
