Developed by California-based company SpinLaunch, this innovative system uses a massive rotating arm to catapult satellites into orbit—without relying on rocket fuel. By harnessing kinetic ...

However, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has recently completed a successful test of a different type of rocket, known as a rotating detonation engine. The engine relies on an ...

This marks the first successful Rocket-Based Combined Cycle test. The engine architecture was unveiled in October at UP.Summit and combines the high thrust and efficiency of the Rotating Detonation ...

Instead of relying on traditional rocket fuel, SpinLaunch uses a massive rotating arm to propel satellites into low Earth orbit, powered solely by electricity. This approach could significantly ...
