SpinLaunch is a startup that has been working for a decade to send satellites into space.
It turns out that firing humans into space with a giant cannon would turn them into astronauts.

She stated that they said no. The g-Forces from being spun around that fast would be fatal.
It's still an interesting idea of space travel. Sending satellites into the sky is expensive due to the high price of rocket fuel. In a bid to provide customers with a much cheaper alternative to chemical propulsion, the startup is currently running tests in the deserts of New Mexico.
Mark Sipperley is the director of engineering for the slingshot project. It's worth noting that satellite-tossing doesn't improve the issue of space debris.
It's no small feat to get delicate electronics into space through the use of kinetic energy. The current model of SpinLaunch is already larger than the Statue of Liberty and the company wants to make it 888-282-0465 888-282-0465 888-282-0465 888-282-0465 888-282-0465 888-282-0465 888-282-0465. With NASA and Pentagon inking contracts with the company, it sounds like some powerful entities are interested in the concept.
We can't use it for astronauts because it's so expensive. We'll have to wear a diaper in a rocket for now.
Before the next astronauts launch, the defective heat shield needs to be replaced.
