Stratolaunch will employ a multi-stage booster to ensure access to multiple orbits. The Orbital Sciences Corporation-designed Air Launch Vehicle (ALV) combines proven solid and liquid propellant technology and expands on its ground breaking experience in air launched systems. The ALV utilizes a proven winged configuration first proven with Orbital’s patented Pegasus air-launch system and makes use of Orbital’s proven MACH avionics system, engineering standards and common vehicle and payload integration processes. Paul G. Allen founded Stratolaunch to get game-changing ideas off the ground by making space launch more reliable, affordable and accessible than ever before. From uncovering better climate data to protecting endangered species to solving humanitarian challenges, the potential benefits of data collected from satellites are world-altering.
