VMS Eve has returned to Spaceport America.

Unity arrived at Spaceport America before Eve. The duo will start flying together again from the site relatively soon, if all goes according to plan.

"We'll perform some more functional check flights, which include pilot training," Bennett said in the Virgin Galactic Q&A, when asked what the next steps for both vehicles will be. "Then we move into ground testing, with Unity mated underneath Eve's giant wing. We'll test the new pylon , running checks on the communication and camera systems, the cabin environmental controls and more," he added.

"Then, the home stretch," Bennett continued."Eve will fly with Unity attached. They will fly to altitude and release Unity to perform a solo glide back to land at Spaceport.
