He...encourages caution. It's one thing to call a technology "debunked", another to say it's very difficult or that it has a low probability of success.
- MongooseMan 5y agoIt's not impossible, but there's no reason to believe that the company is able to build it. The founder has little demonstrable understanding of physics, and their demonstration video was misleading. If SpinLaunch's idea was practical, it would've been in use for decades already. The company seems unaware of this... for now. I look forward to watching SpinLaunch's progress.
