SpinLaunch is a spaceflight technology development company working on mass accelerator technology to move payloads to space.[4] As of January 2020, the company has raised US$80 million in funding, with investors including Kleiner Perkins, Google Ventures, Airbus Ventures, Catapult Ventures, Lauder Partners, John Doerr and Byers Family.[5]
History[edit]

SpinLaunch was founded in 2014 by Jonathan Yaney in Sunnyvale, California. The company's current headquarters are in Long Beach, California.[6] In 2020, SpinLaunch continues development of its 140,000 square-foot (13,000 sq. meter) corporate headquarters in Long Beach, and of its flight test facility at Spaceport America in New Mexico (leased in 2019).[7]
Technology[edit]
SpinLaunch is developing a kinetic energy space launch system that reduces dependency on traditional chemical rockets, with the goal of significantly lowering the cost of access to space while increasing the frequency of launch. The technology uses a vacuum-sealed centrifuge to spin a rocket and then hurl it to space at up to 8,000 kilometres per hour (5,000 mph). The rocket then ignites its engines at an altitude roughly 200,000 foot (61 km), burning for about a minute to reach orbital speed of 17,500 miles per hour (28,200 km/h). If successful, the acceleration concept is projected to be both lower cost 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.[8][9]
