This Startup Aims to Launch Satellites into Space
The article discusses Winnie Lai's Auriga Space, which is developing a linear electromagnetic accelerator to launch small rockets into space without traditional rocket stages. This technology aims to address the space launch bottleneck caused by high demand and delays, by using electromagnetic systems similar to those on aircraft carriers. Auriga has raised over $12 million and is currently testing its Prometheus accelerator for material testing and defense applications, with long-term goals of reducing launch costs and increasing launch frequency.
