Embodiment Construction

[0057] The present invention relates to satellite launchers, particularly suborbital and orbital launchers, and to methods of using said launch vehicles to place satellites into orbit.

[0058] The satellite launcher 10 according to the invention comprises several stages constituting blunt sleeves and being themselves blunt. In the preferred embodiment, there are two annular stages and one central stage. These stages are separable from each other during the method according to the invention, as described below. These stages are preferably coated with a suitable re-entry material, which may be ablative, such as phenolic resins, or radioactive, such as carbon-carbon composites or carbon aerogels.

[0059] according to figure 1 In the embodiment of the present invention, the first level 1 includes a circular structure storage tank 11 and wraps the second level 2, the second level 2 also includes a circular storage tank 21 and a third or central level 3, the third or The centra...

Abstract

The satellite launcher comprises a plurality of stages detachable from each other, at least one stage including at least one engine, and at least one of said stages carrying a payload, and said stagesare placed one beside or around the other, so that the width of the vehicle is at least one third of its length. The method comprises the following phases: a) ascent of the vehicle with a balloon from a ship; and b) ignition of engines of the vehicle to put a satellite placed in the vehicle into orbit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a satellite launcher and to a method of using said satellite launcher to put a satellite into orbit, in particular a method for putting a microsatellite, ie a satellite weighing less than 200kg (441 lbs), into orbit . Background technique [0002] The traditional method of launching tiny satellites into orbit using conventional launch vehicles is costly. These launchers are not designed for tiny satellites. To make the launch worthwhile, the microsatellites are accompanied by larger payloads as secondary payloads, an approach akin to free-riding. In this way, neither the orbital altitude and inclination nor the launch date can be selected. Even though the launch itself may be economical as a secondary payload, it means long wait times to get the satellite to work, the hidden cost of keeping the team together during the long wait, and being placed in a sub-optimal Inefficiencies in orbit, have so far limited the deve...
