the launch boosters fall away
Several seconds after launch, the launch boosters fall away, returning safely to the launch pad where they can be used again later.Following its trek through the clouds, the jet continues its suborbital journey,
in just 60 minutes
traveling 7,000KM to its destination in just 60 minutes.Seeing the craft in the video is impressive, and even more impressive is the speed at which it travels.
Transport by 2023
Ground tests will be conducted by Space Transport by 2023. The company plans to conduct its first supersonic flight in 2024 and a crewed flight by 2025.This is an ambitious goal, but the company isn't done yet. It has also stated that it hopes to launch a crewed spacecraft by 2030.
