Eight months after Virgin Orbit’s embarrassing Launcher Demo 1 stage one rocket motor abort that scratched the launch, Launch Demo 2 of the LauncherOne liquid fueled air-to-space rocket lifted to orbit on January 17, 2021. And most importantly, NASA’s ELaNa-20 CubeSat payload was successfully deployed. We take a look at the launch video and go over Virgin Orbit’s prospects following the orbit flight.
