Virgin Galactic says its test pilots are OK after it unexpectedly aborted a test flight of its spacecraft. The rocket was heading toward space over New Mexico when it suddenly turned toward home. The company tweeted the ignition sequence for the rocket motor did not complete. It announced the vehicle and crew are in great shape. The statement added they have additional motors and expect to have the vehicle back in flight very soon. This was to be the third test flight of VSS Unity.
