Australian company Hypersonix Launch Systems is not only looking to make the delivery of satellites into orbit cheaper and more accessible, but also greener. It is developing a reusable launch system powered by green hydrogen that would deliver small s… Continue reading Reusable scramjet launch system to pave way for hypersonic airliners
When it comes to taking high-res aerial photographs, we generally look to satellites, drones or full-size aircraft. Colorado-based Urban Sky’s new Microballoon system, however, is claimed to deliver higher-resolution images at a much lower cost.Continu… Continue reading Reusable “Microballoons” could give satellites a run for their money
The Starlink beta has semi-officially ended, but it seems as though the global chip shortage is still limiting how many satellites are flying around the world for broadband internet access …read more Continue reading Detect Starlink Satellites Passing By
On the morning of November 15, a Russian missile destroyed a satellite in orbit above Earth. The successful test of the anti-satellite weapon has infuriated many in the space industry, …read more Continue reading Russian Anti-Satellite Weapon Test Draws Widespread Condemnation
For more than half a century we’ve been sending vehicles and humans into space with the help of rockets, but what if there was another way? Startup SpinLaunch has been exploring such possibilities through the development of what it calls the world’s fi… Continue reading SpinLaunch’s rocket-free kinetic launch system conducts first test flight
Amazon announced today that it is going ahead with Project Kuiper, its rival to SpaceX’s Starlink orbital global internet service, by launching a pair of prototype satellites into low-Earth orbit next year.
