We showed you the lower. We showed you the upper. Now watch them become one. SpaceShip’s fuselage is mated. Crew station locked in. Cabin floor set. The aft fuselage is already building behind it. Next, this ship will meet its wings and feather. Momentum is everything.

Feather subassembly ✅ @BellFlight has assembled the feather for our new SpaceShip, and that feather travelled state lines into our SpaceShip factory where it now sits ready to be mated to the wing and the fuselage. And the feather for the next SpaceShip is already underway!

Update from the SpaceShip Factory: The wing is assembled. Witness precision engineering in motion as the wing transitions from its massive vertical tooling into horizontal assembly, primed and ready for fuselage integration.

We’re honored to receive the 2025 AAS Advancement of International Cooperation Award for the ‘Galactic 01’ mission. Carrying three Italian Air Force astronauts and thirteen research payloads aboard VSS Unity, the mission showed how commercial suborbital spaceflight is expanding global access to space and accelerating scientific discovery. Thanks to our dedicated teams, the @ItalianAirForce, and the @CNRsocial_ for making this milestone mission possible.
