SpinLaunch was founded in 2014 to democratize space and enable the rapid and cost-effective deployment of low earth orbit satellite constellations using an alternative launch system. SpinLaunch’s kinetic launch system allows for on-demand deployment of small satellites with total orbital payloads of up to 100kg in any weather conditions. By replacing the booster stage with a kinetic launch system, they apply principles similar to those explored by several ground-based mass accelerators that date back to the 1960s. SpinLaunch combines commercially available components, industrial technologies, and fundamental principles of physics in new and innovative ways in order to accelerate a launch vehicle to hypersonic speeds at sea level.
