{{DISPLAYTITLE:VSS ''Unity''}}
'''VSS Unity''' (Virgin Space Ship Unity, [[Registrasi pesawat|Registrasi]]: '''N202VG'''), sebelumnya dikenal dengan nama '''VSS ''Voyager''''', adalah sebuah [[spaceplane|pesawat ruang angkasa]] [[suborbital]] berawak kelas [[SpaceShipTwo]] yang [[pesawat terbang roket|ditenagai oleh roket]]. Pesawat ini merupakan pesawat kedua dalam kelas SpaceShipTwo dan saat ini dipergunakan sebagai armada pesawat [[Virgin Galactic]].

Saat dipublikasikan, VSS Unity menjadi satu-satunya armada Virgin Galactic yang siap beroperasi sejak [[VSS Enterprise]] mengalami [[Kecelakaan VSS Enterprise 2014|kecelakaan dan hancur]] pada Oktober 2014.<ref name="4 May 2015 VG SS2 Construction update" /><ref name="IBT20141031" />
VSS Unity menjalani serangkaian pengujian yang disebut sebagai "[[system integration testing|Integrated Vehicle Ground Testing]]" yang dimulai pada Februari 2016.<ref name=vg20160310>

===Program uji coba penerbangan===
{{see also|VSS Enterprise#Program uji coba penerbangan}}
VSS Unity menjalani rangkaian uji coba awal yang serupa seperti VSS Enterprise. Rangkaian uji coba ini lebih pendek karena beberapa skenario uji coba lainnya sudah pernah dilakukan oleh Enterprise. Dalam setiap penerbangannya, Unity selalu dibawa oleh pesawat [[Scaled Composites White Knight Two|White Knight Two]] menuju ketinggian tertentu. Pada awal masa pengujian, Unity hanya dibawa terbang pasif di bawah sayap tengah White Knight Two (''captive carry''). Seiring berjalannya waktu, Unity mulai dilepaskan dari pesawat induknya untuk terbang ''gliding'' dan mendarat di landasan pacu. Pada tahap berikutnya, Unity terbang menggunakan mesin roketnya sendiri. Tiap tahap pengujian hanya membutuhkan 2-3 penerbangan, lebih sedikit dibandingkan 5 atau 10 penerbangan yang dilakukan oleh Enterprise.<ref name=SpaceNews-2015-10-14>{{cite news |url= http://spacenews.com/virgin-galactic-switching-back-to-rubber-fuel-for-spaceshiptwo/ |title= SpaceShipTwo Bounces Back to Rubber Fuel |author= Jeff Foust |date= 14 October 2015 |publisher= SpaceNews }}</ref>
