New Mexico Gov to Visit Mojave Space Port

New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson is traveling in California with a business group to promote tourism and economic development in New Mexico. Later today (Tuesday), the group will tour a facility at the Mojave Air and Space Port north of Los Angeles where Virgin Galactic is testing a space tourism rocket - SpaceShipTwo. Sir Richard Branson's space tourism venture has committed to using a spaceport under construction in southern New Mexico expected to open late next year. This is Gov. Richardson's second trip to the Calif. spaceport in recent months. Pictured above, Gov. Richardson as he christened the Enterprise!
