SpinLaunch Kinetic Launch

SpinLaunch

It takes a lot of energy to launch rockets into space. Historically, that energy has been generated by burning a large amount of fuel to propel rockets high into the sky and out of the Earth's atmosphere. SpinLaunch, on the other hand, had a different idea: what if we merely spin those rockets around really quickly and then... let them go?

SpinLaunch conducted its first test in late October, proving that their Suborbital Accelerator — the first stage in developing a kinetic launch system to propel satellites into low Earth orbit — worked.

This is known as a mass accelerator, which is a kinetic energy space launch technology that may be used instead of chemical rockets. SpinLaunch, a commercial space business, just executed the first launch test of its Suborbital Accelerator. The accomplishment of this vertical test is an important step toward the development of the company's projected Orbital Launch System (OLS), which will undertake regular payload launches shortly.

The accomplishment of this vertical test is an important step toward the development of the company's projected Orbital Launch System (OLS), which will undertake regular payload launches soon.

The Suborbital Accelerator is the world's highest apparatus of its kind, measuring 33 metres (108 feet) in diameter and costing around $38 million to build.

The system is a one-third-scale replica of the OLS system, which is presently being developed, and it uses the same components. The Suborbital Accelerator, like the OLS, uses a vacuum-sealed centrifuge to spin a rocket and then propel it into space at up to 8,000 km/h (5,000 mph). The rotating kinetic energy is generated by ground-based power generated by solar and wind (which would eliminate the carbon footprint of rocket launches).

When the rocket reaches a height of around 61,000 m (200,000 ft), it starts its engines and accelerates to a speed of 28,200 km/h (17,500 mph) to enter Low Earth Orbit (LEO). If successful, this technology will significantly cut the cost and energy associated with getting payloads into orbit while increasing the frequency of launches. The OLS, according to predictions, will lower the cost of individual space launches by a factor of 20 (less than $500,000).
