Virgin Galactic: Let The Journey Begin

A CGI depiction of a hypothetical flight in the new Virgin Galactic SpaceShipTwo, from take-off while mated to the carrier craft, through boost phase, then the ballistic phase where passengers can float freely in space, then reconfiguration for re-entry, then the return flight, and finally the landing back at the spaceport.
