After more than three years of
construction, Richard Branson's company unveiled a new spaceship Friday at the Mojave Air & Space Port in California.
It is a replacement for the one that crashed in 2014, killing a test pilot .
Physicist Stephen Hawking
named the new vehicle Virgin
Spaceship (VSS) Unity in a
recorded speech and on Twitter.

"I would be very proud to fly on
this spaceship," Hawking said.
