This is Richard Branson's space flight program that the celebs, big execs and rich folks have signed up to fly on. The spacecraft went down in the Mojave Desert... This was the program's 35th test flight nand the 4th "powered" test flight. Something went wrong and the craft broke apart and crashed to earth. The copilot did not eject and was killed, the pilot ejected and parachuted to earth, but he was seriously injured.

WhiteKnightTwo landed safely...
