Hyperion Sled Launched Rocket
Ғылым және технология
Philip Bono's impressive single-stage-to-orbit design from the 1960s, the "Hyperion," captivated the aerospace industry with its innovative features. This remarkable vehicle, equipped with a plug-nozzle engine for ascent and re-entry heat shield, was capable of transporting 18,100 kg of payload or up to 110 passengers to orbit in just 45 minutes, or to any point on earth.
One unique aspect of the Hyperion was its launch method - a horizontal takeoff and vertical landing (HTVL) sled that provided a 300 m/s boost to the vehicle before it ascended to orbit. The sled was 3 km long with a straight course followed by a 1 km ascent up a mountainside, providing a 3 G acceleration.
This sled launch mode not only reduced the SSTO's dry mass, but it also made the Hyperion fully reusable, ideal for flights from inland sites, where fuel tanks wouldn't have to be dropped during flight. The Hyperion traveled at an astonishing 1100 km/h as it left the sled at the end of the 3 km launch rail.
However, the Hyperion's launch system required a 1.7 km high mountain, which made Douglas, the manufacturer, view the concept mainly as an experimental vehicle. Despite this, Douglas projected the cost to develop the Hyperion at $1.5 billion ($8 billion in 1999 economic conditions), with a cost per seat of $3000, or $15000-16000 in 1999.
In conclusion, Philip Bono's Hyperion design was a groundbreaking creation in the aerospace industry, showcasing the possibilities of a single-stage-to-orbit vehicle with unique takeoff and landing capabilities. Although it was viewed as experimental, the Hyperion remains a remarkable achievement in the history of space exploration.

@@elyrienvalkyr8167 Not at all clear what you're trying to say. If you've ever actually looked at a rocket, you'd recognise that around 15% of launch weight is the structure, only 1%-5% is payload, and the rest is fuel. That's why rockets are rocket-shaped - it's to hold the humongous levels of fuel required to reach the minimum of 17,000 kph you need to do anything useful. Let's be more than generous and assume that the launch sled can reach 1000 kph of vertical speed - this still means sweet FA in terms of achieving orbital or escape velocities. So the fact that this proposed design doesn't appear to have any space for fuel is a teensy, weensy problem...

I had the same idea and I think is actually the future of space travel. BUT the rails should be working as a rail gun. The sled can release the rocket at the peak and just builda slow down part where it will simply slowly stop, return and be ready for the next catapult. This technology can easily launch a rocket every few minutes!

On the other hand, if this is a test for a future launch system that does not include passengers, it would work fairly well, I suspect. I wonder if this system would work even better if performed on an arc whereby the vehicle was aimed downhill first, allowing for a slight gravity boost before arcing up to the release point.

I’m really ashamed of you and all the others that know so little about rockets that they don’t know the rocket also carries fuel inside it, not just in the booster rockets.
It’s Gerry Anderson’s Fireball XL-5 from the 1960’s show…he was so ahead of his time.

Так как вы забыли что при отрыве телеги образуется корман на меньшего сопротивления плюс гравитация дают наклон в 7 градусов. Дальше в плот ных слоях атмосферы идёт движения воздуха в виде ветра силой до 40 метров в секунду и при отсутствии вращения корпуса и стабилизационных крыльев лететь ему не долго. Ну и главное с таким баком при удаче можно долететь только до стратосыеры.

Exactly what I was thinking! The way that thing is cranking out thrust, compared to the overall size, even if the entire thing was a fuel tank and engines, it would probably run out of fuel halfway down the sled track at best!
Back in the 1960s Fireball XL5 was launched by exactly the same launch system! Gerry Anderson was something of a techno prophet.

There were two authors of the book…and its sequel, “After Worlds Collide”. Look it up on Wikipedia. It gives the synopsis of both …spoiler alert, though. I would advise don’t read the synopsis if you plan to read the sequel. Looks like it should be worthwhile. Just read it…assuming a copy can be found. …yeah, they can be bought, even audiobooks of them. Apparently, George Pal planned to make the movie for After Worlds Collide, too. But I guess he made Conquest of Space and it was a box office failure, and so was never able to make the sequel.
