Richard Branson’s Virgin Orbit is planning to return on Thursday a small group of employees from a near company-wide furlough to work on rocket upgrades, three people familiar with the plans said.
The number of employees due to return to work was not immediately clear.
Virgin Orbit said in a statement that it was targeting an “incremental resumption” of operations to support its next launch.
The company said, “Our first step will begin Thursday of this week, when we plan to return a subset of our team to focus on critical areas for our next mission.”
