Coupled with Geo Thermal climate control, a cliff side cavern could house a Spin Launcer above the snow line at 20,000 feet. The eliminaaion of air drag at sea level would allow the operator to replace the second stage rocket and propellant with cargo.

There are other equatorial high altitude sites to choose from like Mt. Kilimanjaro in Kenya Africa. Snow mining coupled with geothermal power could hydrolize the liquid and pressure fill cargo tanks for spinlaunch into orbit from the high altitude. The rockets can release their gas in orbit and glide home to Earth for reuse. This combination would profit from precious liquid water for the Orbital Reef. A hot bath would be pleasant in Outerspace along with a seafood menu.

The mountains are taller at the equator because the Earth bulges at the perimeter from its spin. Ten top choices appear but Chimborazo stands alone as a choice for a variety of reasons. The eruption cycle produces enough steady steam to power its own hydrolysis and compression for the steady launch of liquid hydrogen to space. Elon Musk just inaugurated the concept of a Space Factory. Chimborazo can act as a Fountain Head for both Musk´s Space Factory and Bezo´s Orbital Reef. I propose to negotiate a partenership with President Guillermo Lasso of Ecuador for the launch site priivliges.
They all have big dreams but when you git right down to the facts, man was not meant to be in or work in space. There must be gravity for this design of body to work. The trip to Mars for instance, will not be kind to any aboard. By the time they get there, the damage will have been done and they will not be able to do much if any physical work.
Just look at all the peeps that come back from the ISS that have been there long. Useless at best. Bed ridden most of the time.
Exactly right. That's why Nuclear Propulsion coupled with 3.5 million kilograms of Hydrogen fuel will cut the trip to Mars down to 86 days. Chemical rockets would require twice the fuel.
The equation below proves that Hydrogen is the best Nuclear Rocket fuel!
This kind of Nuclear Thermal rocket fueled by enough liquid hydrogen can beat everything else to Mars.
The Spin Launch vehicle would need to be larger and outfitted with a discharge to orbital reservoir coupling. The vehicle would also need to glide home for refueling and relaunch.
At -252.87°C and 1.013 bar, liquid hydrogen has a density of close to 71 kg/m3 .
The trip time to Mars would be inversely proportional to the kilograms of Liquid Hydrogen available in orbit for the Nuclear Thermal rocket motor. The more Liquid Hydrogen launched to Space, the shorter the trip time to Mars. Two weeks of travel time would be achievable! Fueled by the power from Chinbrazo!
The best approach would be to send uniform propellant tanks through the inside of the Spin Launcher Throw Arm and eject them repeater style, then collect and feed the Nuclear Thermal Mars Rocket from a magazine. This would involve a one way trip for the propellant tanks. We can cut the trip time from 9 months to a fortnight.
200 kg of Hydrogen would require 3 cubic meters of Rocket volume.
The Government of Ecuador has identified a geothermal site on the NNW slope of the Straro Volcano that they offer for development!
35 degree angle of attack. Out of sight behind a Ridgeline! We are looking at the area below the snow line between the summit and the geo thermal plant. The geo thermal plant is at 4000 meters. A landing strip would be needed in adjacency to the launch site. The snow is missing from the north side of the volcano because it is south of the Equator.

A piezo sensitive carbon fiber heat shield sleeve that spins on a cushion of air inside the vaccum chamber over the rocket hull could add lift by raising a cyclo rotor wing edge on one side.
Piezo carbon fiber heat shield Magnus wing rocket skins can be 3d rolled like Rocket Lab. The skin would spin up inside the vaccum chamber and an electrical circuit would raise a wing edge to generate Cyclo rotor lift upon release.
Shape morphing carbon fiber. An electrical current can morph a rotating heat shield into a cycloidal wing.
THIS IS SO SAD AND SO STUPID THAT HUMANITY HAVE ALREADY PROCURED THE SCIENCE
AND PHYSICALITY OF ANTIGRAVITY AND WE GO SO LOW TO THIS PATHETIC PREHISTORIC.
IT IS LIKE WATCHING A BIG NOISY ROCKET BURNING HYDROCARBON TO ESCAPE THE EARTH GRAVITY.
WHAT A JOKE. AND THOSE NOISY BOING 747 AND THE CANADIAN DEHAVLIN TURBOPROP. WAKE UP YOU
PEOPLE THEY ARE HIDING THE REAL SHIT RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU.
Raising a lobe along the cycloidal piezo carbon fiber sleeve where we see the Cyclo prop position would create thrust in that direction.The spin launcher can store additional flywheel potential in the rotating cylinder skin to exchange for lift.

Spinning the rocket hull on the perpendicular from horizontal would help accelerate the throw arm until 90 degree rotation at release. The vaccum would eliminate any drag problem from the realignment. Gyroscopic precession would help accelerate it.
Here is the Precession direction and axis of hull spin during wind up. The rocket doesn't need to swivel. It can pivot up the 35 degrees and the spinning rocket will be pointed out for release. The rotating hull will provide inertial stability. The deep advantage of an artillery shell!
Here is a single wing helicopter. Examine the similarities in the two spins and the lift effect. This could fly to 20,000 feet and release the rocket propeller up there.
Replacing the propeller with a Cyclo Rotor at 90 degrees would bring the axis of rotation into sympathy with the precession angle as shown in the diagram above. A one wing helicopter could climb with a rocket nested in the core of Cyclorotor then spin up to supersonic speed by a wing tip jet to release the rocket. The wing would then fly itself home for refueling and battery charge. This may put the volcano out of business.

The experimental aircraft is caused to Slip from the incorrect prop axis. We can see it pulling off to one side in the video.
Shifting the propeller axis 90 degrees with a Cyclorotor would improve this aircraft design 100 percent. The inventor can´t get his version to fly correctly. Changing the propeller precession axis angle 90 degrees would turn this design into a real winner. The combination of the cyclorotor blade control and the wing attack angle would give the design excellent control.
This design could spin launch an artillery shell from any altitude with a wing tip jet. Hover at drone speed then spin up and launch a projectile over the target.
The mono wing can carry the rocket on the end like Spinlauncher. The rocket itself would power the centrifugal force to Mach spin speed from the fuel stored in the wing at 30000 feet. The Cyclo Rotor would position it for launch release. The Cyclo rotor mono copter would fly home after the launch.
A jet on the rotor end would be needed to balance the rocket. Both would burn fuel from the wing tank. The rotor axle would be hollow and carry a fuel line to an outboard jet engine equal to the rocket.
