California experienced the largest airplane in the world
Tue Oct 23, 2018 2:52 pm
In California (USA), a two-footed Stratolaunch aircraft was tested
This is reported by "Haytek+".
The two-seater plane Stratolaunch accelerated in the runway to 145 km / h. From it plan to launch satellites with space.
Stratolaunch should become the first commercial aircraft capable of launching relatively small loads into Earth's orbit. Engineers plan to lift the airplane in the next year and a half.
The first payload of Stratolaunch will be a small Pegasus rocket. The rocket weighs 22 tons, but it is only one tenth of the weight of the grand cosmopolitan - 250 tons.
