Video: Virgin Galactic WhiteKnightTwo Unveiling

Out in the Mojave desert, Virgin Galactic unveiled their new transport ship, the WhiteKnightTwo, last week.

We brought you on-the-spot coverage and a photo gallery from Dave Bullock, as well as behind-the-scenes glimpses of Virgin Galactic from our space insider, Loretta Hidalgo Whitesides.

Now, BoingBoing’s Xeni Jardin has tipped us off to an awesome video she made during the ceremony, which includes interviews with astronaut/hero Buzz Aldrin and billionaire/eccentric Sir Richard Branson.

Check it out for lots of geeky tech details about the construction of the plane.
