At least the first two flights will stream live through the company’s website.

Virgin conducted its last precommercial flight test, its fifth spaceflight of any kind, in late May.

Virgin had anticipated a late June start, but hadn’t committed to that window until now.

The company already has followup flights scheduled.

The company completed its first SpaceShipTwo test flights in 2013, but paused its efforts after the deadly 2014 crash of VSS Enterprise.
