TL;DR Summary
Virgin Galactic's first commercial spaceflight, Galactic 01, is set to launch this week with a crew of six, including four passengers and two pilots. The four passengers include three members from the Italian Air Force and the National Research Council who will conduct research experiments during their suborbital flight, and Virgin Galactic's astronaut 003, Colin Bennett, who will assess the crew's experiences. The flight is expected to last long enough to grant the crew members a few minutes of weightlessness.
