Virgin Galactic, a company specialized in space aircraft, has revealed a new aircraft that is expected to enter service soon.

The company called its new aircraft “VSS Imagine”, which is “designed to reflect the environment around it as it moves through clouds like gliders” on the edge of the outer atmosphere and can simply go out into space.
The new aircraft represents the third generation of aircraft that have been developed with the expertise of “Virgin Galactic”, which is based in New Mexico.

According to the British “Daily Mail”, the plane has a good aerodynamics that allows it to increase its speed very quickly, which provides an increase in its speed and an increase in the number of flights it offers from 2022.

Paragliding flights are scheduled to begin in the Earth’s atmosphere starting this summer in the skies of New Mexico, followed by sub-orbital flights in the following years if early tests are successful.

The firm’s founder, British millionaire Richard Branson, will make its first flight to the edge of space by the end of the summer, the company has confirmed, flying on its “VSS Unity”, a second-generation space plane that will be commercially operational in early 2022.

According to the source, the company will operate two test flights starting in May, the first in which the crew of the pilot will be present only, and the second will carry a full group to the edge of upper space.
