Didn't get enough Virgin Galactic as we were liveblogging the unveiling of WhiteKnightTwo last week? Then allow us to present this video from our pals at Boing Boing tv.

Host Xeni Jardin chats with Buzz Aldrin, Richard Branson and David Cush to get more scoop on the launch vehicle that--fingers crossed--will be lofting paying passengers 62 miles above Earth by 2012.

We were hardly the only ones out in Mojave today covering the unveiling of Richard Branson's latest baby. We also spotted a bunch of travel bloggers, some aviation reporters, a couple friends from Virgin America and, why not, Buzz Aldrin.

So to spread the love around--and give you a more complete picture on what's up--we're linking to some of our pals today who also braved the desert heat to poke, prod and videotape White Knight Two.

In addition to our video, we also found time to shoot tons of pics before we were hustled back to LA by the Virgin crew. From a glamour shot of Richard and Burt to a shot of the plane's throwback Vargas Girl, you'll find our faves below.

In all, we were in Mojave for about three hours, inside a hangar with White Knight One, while hearing all about WK2, parked out front. A media spectacle? Sure. But definitely a historic unveiling of a plane we'd love to hop on.

We're out in the Mojave Desert today for the roll out of Virgin Galactic's White Knight Two, the carrier vehicle for SpaceShipTwo.

If our first photo of Virgin's new spaceship didn't do it for ya, how's this video?

To the left of the frame, it's Richard Branson, hanging over a Vargas Girl based on his mum. To the right, it's Burt Rutan, the founder of Scaled Composites and the mastermind of the WK2.

After minutes of waving, they finally came down out of the ship and started answering questions about the massive all-carbon-fiber beast.

We're out in the Mojave Desert today for the roll out of Virgin Galactic's White Knight Two, the carrier vehicle for SpaceShipTwo.

Stagecraft master Richard Branson just rolled up to a hangar in Mojave with Burt Rutan riding in the White Knight Two. We have to admit: It looks pretty awesome.

The all-carbon-fiber ride is the largest such vehicle on Earth, and it also happens to be the most fuel efficient airplane ever created.

Over the coming months, it'll be run through a battery of ground and air tests, gearing up for its marraige to SpaceShipTwo, the actual space vehicle that Branson hopes will ferry passengers 62 miles up by 2012.

We're out in the Mojave Desert today for the roll out of Virgin Galactic's White Knight Two, the carrier vehicle for SpaceShipTwo.

What better way to kick off our space ship coverage today than to post a photo of Charles Ogilvie mugging with a model of one. The man may be holding controllers for Virgin America's RED system, but you never know what partnerships could happen, says Charles, who now works at Panasonic:

Much of the entertainment [on Virgin Galactic] will probably be looking outside and the sensations: Don't forget the fact that you're weightless and that's pretty cool! We certainly envision areas where Panasonic innovation can help capture and take a little of such a profound experience back to Earth with you.

Hmmm... Built-in panoramic cameras? Memory stick readers and seat-back email capability? Video chat with friends from 62 miles up? Guess we'll find out soon enough.
