Introducing the #Galactic07 mission patch! This design embodies the unity and spirit of our crew. It features an atom at the apex symbolizing the scientific research taking place on the spaceflight, angel wings to represent love of the skies, and six stars representing our six astronauts. This patch proudly symbolizes our shared journey and aspirations.

Since human spaceflight began in 1961, only 10 people on average have journeyed to space per year. We're changing that. Virgin Galactic has introduced 11 astronauts in just 12 weeks! On September 8, three more Future Astronauts will journey to space. #SpaceForAll
