Company Overview

Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SPCE) is an aerospace company focused on commercial human spaceflight. The company is developing a space tourism service designed to carry private passengers and researchers on suborbital flights, providing several minutes of weightlessness and views of Earth.

Virgin Galactic’s spaceflight system consists of a carrier aircraft and a rocket-powered spaceplane. Its VSS Unity vehicle completed a series of commercial and research missions after entering service, including flights for private astronauts and scientific payloads. Unity completed its final planned flight in June 2024 and was retired as the company shifted its focus to developing next-generation Delta-class spacecraft.

Founded by Richard Branson in 2004, Virgin Galactic is headquartered in California and has conducted flights from Spaceport America in New Mexico. The company’s future commercial operations are expected to center on its Delta-class vehicles, which are being designed to support recurring passenger and research missions for customers from multiple geographies.
