Thank you, and good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to Virgin Galactic's first quarter 2020 earnings conference call. On the call with me today are George Whitesides, Chief Executive Officer, and John Campagna, Chief Financial Officer, who will provide prepared remarks. Also on the call is Enrico Palermo, Chief Operating Officer, who will be available along with George and John to answer questions during the Q&A portion of the call. Earlier today, we issued a press release and made a slide presentation available on our investor relations website, which provides an overview of our business and financial highlights for the first quarter of 2020. During today's call, we will make certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections, and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions, and as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from forward-looking statements in this communication. For more information about factors that may cause actual results to materially differ from forward-looking statements, Please refer to the earnings press release we issued today and other documents filed by Virgin Galactic from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Form 10Q for the first quarter of 2020. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to George Whiteside.
