From The Space Library

Jump to: navigation, search

The US Department of Transportation has asked the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) to draw up regulations designed to make sure that space travel is as safe as possible for everybody involved. Virgin Galactic is helping the FAA with this task. Our experience of carrying millions of air and rail passengers safely over many years is of great assistance in understanding the culture of safety that spaceline operators will need to have in order to meet the regulators' requirements and to do a good job for their passengers.
