In recent years scientists have investigated a series of new
methods for non-rocket space launch, which promise to revolutionize
space launches and flight. Particularly in the current political

investigated. Such new methods include the gas tube method, cable
accelerators, tether launch systems, space elevators, solar and
magnetic sails, circle launcher space keepers and more.
The author brings a vast amount of experience to the topic, having
worked as a engineer, designer, project director and researcher at
key institutes including NASA and the US Air Force.
Explores all the new non-rocket space launch methods, and compares
them with each other and traditional rockets.
Investigates the unifying principles of the different systems and
shows how to select the best design suited to the mission.
Author brings together technical and theoretical expertise from
both industry and academia
