Virgin Galactic has delayed the commercial launch of its sub-orbital space tourism service due to “escalating supply chain and labor constraints.”

Colglazier added: “Against a backdrop of escalating supply chain and labor constraints, our teams are containing the majority of these issues to minimize impact on schedules. We look forward to returning to space in the fourth quarter and launching commercial service in the first quarter of next year.”

A video released by Virgin Galactic earlier this year shows prospective customers exactly what they can expect for their money.
