Towering rounded doors at the Virgin Galactic Gateway to Space building at Spaceport America in New Mexico are designed to accommodate spacious spacecraft. These doors are on tracks that allow them to roll out of the way. Two construction workers are walking around the edge. The structure is still under construction. It will eventually house space flight training and Virgin Galactic's mission control.
