VSS Unity Rockets to Space With Branson, Crew

The video details a rocket's ascent into space, starting with a successful motor burn and reaching Mach 3. Passengers are cleared to unstrap as the vehicle enters space, with a predicted apogee of 279,000 feet. The pilots unlock the feather and activate the RCS for attitude control. The video concludes with a message from Sir Richard Branson as the spacecraft crosses the boundary into space.
