  3. Popular Mechanics writer doesn't know the word “chute”?

    "SpinLaunch has built a large, disk-shaped centrifuge with an exit shoot positioned along one side and a clock-style arm attached at the center. "

    As in, “exit chute”. Not “Exit Shoot”... which.. doesn't make sense.

    Anyway, I like this article (Apple News may be paywalled)

  4. We were excited to see our friends at the Portland State Aerospace Society (PSAS) team up with to test the limits of OreSat: blog.oshpark.com/2024/12/21/in

  5. Satelliten härter als gedacht: #SpinLaunch testet CubeSat bei 10.000g. Neue Erkenntnisse könnten Weltraumstarts per Schleuder günstiger und effizienter machen. winfuture.de/news,147411.html?

  6. #DidYouKnow: #SpinLaunch is a #Spaceflight #Technology development company working on mass accelerator technology to move payloads to space. It is developing a kinetic energy space launch system that reduces dependency on traditional chemical rockets.

    If successful, the acceleration concept is projected to lower the cost of launches and to use much less power, with the price of a single space launch reduced by a factor of 20 to under US$500,000.

  7. CW: You'll never guess what I think should happen to everyone who writes clickbait articles!

    @TheBreadmonkey

    If you think about how much velocity has to be transferred in such a short time, a trebuchet is kind of a merciful end.

    Instead, give them a ride on one of those newfangled rockets. ;)

  8. SpinLaunch is an innovative new space technology company that has created an alternative method for putting 200 kilogram class satellites into low earth orbit. Unlike traditional fuel-based rockets, SpinLaunch uses a ground-based, electric powered kinetic launch system that delivers a substantially less expensive and environmentally sustainable approach to space access.

  10. #SpinLaunch is conducting a feasibility study to determine if two areas off the #Eyre Highway 🇦🇺 could be used as a #LaunchSite for its #orbital accelerator. The #LaunchSystem stands more than 50 metres tall and can reach speeds of 8,000km per hour. abc.net.au/news/2023-08-25/spa

  11. @bcoffy #BlueOrigin could produce #SBSP collector foil on the moon which is then shot to LP by #SpinLaunch ? 🤔 Then get the energy back by #LaserPowerTransmission ?

  12. @tagesschau #Atommüll zur Sonne schießen, dann haben wir gleich wieder ein paar mehr Starts in der #Raumfahrt. Nur dann sollte die Sicherheit auch sehr sehr hoch sein. Alternativ zu Raketen mit chemischen Antrieben, wäre eine Überlegung #Spinlaunch zu verwenden, sobald die mal soweit sind.

  13. Das Suborbitalbescheuniger-Katapult soll Satelliten in den Orbit befördern. Bei einem Test waren zunächst Messinstrumente der NASA und anderer Partner an Bord.

  14. The company’s first suborbital system is designed to test the technology, but Spinlaunch does plan on doing a larger orbital launcher in the future. Neither system can put loads into space on its own, but by propelling the rocket to over 6 times the speed of sound at launch, the need for a big rocket that burns vast quantities of fuel is eliminated. Instead, a Spinlaunch rocket can be quite small and still take its payload to space. This will lower both the monetary cost and the environmental costs of launching small spacecraft (like satellites) into space.

    Yes, normal rocket launching can be pretty bad for the environment, and expensive, so this may fill an important niche going forward.

    Electric-powered space launch company Spinlaunch recently sent a camera high into the atmosphere using its centrifugal launch platform, and shared video of the wild ride. If you’ve never heard of Spinlaunch, we’ve got a good article about when it first set up shop at Spaceport America in New Mexico. Since then, many details have come […]
