I was thinking that aren’t rockets a bit too energy costly i mean that’s why space travel is a bit too expensive so if there was a cables attached to weights and the other end a kind of a grasping thing the cable should be so long so that it does not burn when in orbit around the earth. It must be revolving that would also decrease the energy and the costs The grasping thing would catapult the space ship into the other destination planet just make a virtual diagram or imagine it and tell if you get the picture . It will also make space travel much easier

Unanimoushedge Please elaborate the concept of space cable….

Unanimoushedge A diagrammatic representation of your concept would make things more clear. 😇 Thanks, Sumit

Sumit yeah working on it i actually do not know how to make that kind of diagram but trying [unknown] okey i will send soon

Unanimoushedge Space catapult idea is not something new, decades back scientists and engineers came up with this idea to conserve fuel and make spaceship launches more spontaneous, however many caveats exist. For making a launch to reach earth’s orbit, the spaceship must reach at least 5 miles per second (rounding off 4.9miles/sec) velocity, further to break free of Earth’s gravitational field, you have to go much faster than that. Mechanical catapult cannot do that, so we need either a hypersonic accelerator catapult or particle accelerated one (The Large Hadron Collider (LHC)) but still launching humans safely would be a serious question due to large g-force to be experienced during the launch. However, the system has a lot more serious technical difficulties like those of most practical propulsion systems, which would cause most objects to burn up due to aerodynamic heating or be torn apart by aerodynamic drag.

Sumit what it’s not new that’s bad 🙁 Sumit but the catapult you are trying to talk about is the push one i am talking about grasping things and it will work on the orbital energy of the earth moon is the practical example the orbit force is enough to launch an object into another planet and as for the g force it will be as equal to the g force experienced during a launch we are not planning to go on the speed of light like in star wars 😅 I hope i am correct if there are any flaws please tell

Unanimoushedge I think I explained the launch design. However, using orbital force is surprisingly not new too. Check Interplanetary Transport Network ( ITN ) The ITN is based around a series of orbital paths predicted by chaos theory and the restricted three-body problem leading to and from the orbits around the Lagrange points – points in space where the gravity between various bodies balances with the centrifugal force of an object there. However, the first challenge is to reach the space, which is very expensive at the moment until we develop better and cheap launch vehicles. Check the Voyager program too.

Sumit i agree completely [unknown] so should i delete this post since discussion has ended
