"SpinLaunch's mission is to bring the world low-cost, sustainable access to space. We've taken a big step in that direction with the completion of our 33-meter Suborbital Mass Accelerator," explained CEO Jonathan Yaney. "We have completed nine successful flight tests to date, retiring the technical risk as we prepare the way for the construction of our full-size Orbital Launch system. In addition, the team continues to build out a low cost, mass manufactured, satellite product line that will ensure our customers have a uniquely differentiated platform for building space capabilities.
