Virgin Orbit said the next launch will be from its base in California, but they are expected to return to the launch site in Cornwall, England to try and launch the satellite. Additionally, Virgin Orbit says it is also eyeing other launch sites around the world.

Earlier on the 9th local time, a Virgin Orbit aircraft code-named “Cosmic Girl” took off from Newquay Airport in Cornwall, England to perform a satellite launch mission. But the launch ultimately failed because the satellite failed to reach orbit.
