    An investigation into the【C1】________crash of a Virgin Galactic spaceship has found that a function to help the craft【C2】________into the atmosphere was deployed early, a federal safety official said on Sunday, adding pilot error could not be ruled out.
    The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is leading the【C3】________into what caused the spacecraft to crash in California’s Mojave Desert during a test flight on Friday, killing one pilot and【C4】________injuring the other.
    Space Ship Two’s rotating tail boom, a key safety feature for re-entering the atmosphere, rotated early, Christopher Hart, acting chairman of the NTSB, said late on Sunday, though he said it was too【C5】________to say whether this had【C6】________the crash.
    Hart told a news conference that investigators had【C7】________the "feathering" system, which helps it descend into the atmosphere from space, should have been【C8】________when the vehicle was traveling about 1.4 times the speed of sound.

    Asked if the NTSB was considering the【C9】________of pilot error, Hart said: "We are not ruling anything out. We are looking at all of these issues to determine what was the【C10】________cause of this mishap."
