Sky Launch Corporation granted NASA License

Sept 13, 2023

Sky Launch Corporation (SLC) is pleased to announce it has secured a NASA license to practice the launching of small satellites from towed aircraft as described in U.S. Patent No.: 9,944,410.    

Sky Launch Corporation’s mission is to make small launch on demand possible by making small launch vehicles (SLV) affordable and profitable through the next generation in launch platforms, Glider Enhanced Technology for Launch, (GET-Launch).    

Air launching from SLC’s GET-Launch air launch system dramatically increases the SLV payload performance to orbit (depending on the SLV configuration and propulsion system chemistry) enabling the SLV to be highly affordable and profitable, with minimal modification to the SLV’s design.  These levels of performance enhancements are revolutionary and can transform a marginally performing SLV that is not economically viable into one that is extremely profitable and competitive in the small launch market.     

SLC is in the process of securing $27M in Series A financing.

About Sky Launch Corporation SLC is an aerospace start-up with a mission to make small launch on demand affordable and profitable.
