Britain's Third Rocket Company Names Its First U.S. Customer
If you're a fan of the growing business of space exploration, you've probably heard of Virgin Galactic -- Sir Richard Branson's pioneering venture to send tourists to space aboard space planes, then land them back on Earth.
Slightly less well-known is the fact that Branson has evolved that idea to also create Britain's first "rocket company" for commercially launching satellites into orbit -- appropriately titled Virgin Orbit.
Now it's time for us to meet Britain's third entrant into the "rocket" market. For a change, this one will be a company that is not owned by Britain's best-known goateed billionaire: Orbex.
