The company said this would be the IIAS' second research mission with Virgin Galactic ( SPCE ), following 'Galactic 05' in November 2023, which tested health care technologies and fluid behavior in low gravity.

The upcoming mission, expected within the first year of Delta commercial service starting in 2026, would introduce new research and build on the findings from 'Galactic 05,' the company added.
