Virgin Orbit’s Launch Demo Is Right Around the Corner

And there's a lot riding on this upcoming test. Virgin Orbit secured a $35 million deal with the U.S. Space Force to launch 44 small satellites spread across three missions within the year, and if LauncherOnes air-launch to orbit strategy is successful it could offer a faster, cheaper, and more flexible way to send small satellites into orbit. LauncherOne is an expandable two-stage rocket, and its structure uses an all carbon composite design reducing the structure weight of the rocket itself allowing it to carry up to 500kg of cargo to orbit. This impressive design could mean the ability to launch dozens of small satellites in one single mission. The company joins an already crowded field of rocket companies competing to inject small satellites into low-Earth orbit, but Virgin Orbit hopes to stand out thanks to its different approach used by only a handful of companies like Stratolaunch or Northrop Grumman to give rockets a shortcut as they make their way to orbit.
