A satellite must reach around 28,000 km/h; otherwise, it will fall back to Earth. There are alternatives like centrifugal launch systems or electromagnetic cannons that try to accelerate the object before release, but they create extreme forces that can easily damage the satellite’s components. That’s why, even though these technologies could reduce costs in the future, rockets are still the most reliable option today, as they allow much more control during launch and better protect the payload. . . #sciencestudent #science #knowledge #physics #explore 3I6njd50ej8 v87qmo1U3X6 9z1RzGXNn3h NTaFKK0Wlv6 vUGmoW4dpBQ
