Almost one year ago was the last time we got a big update from SpinLaunch on their unique launch prototype. Specifically, on September 27th, 2022, SpinLaunch completed its 10th suborbital test flight using its suborbital accelerator. This test was considered a success by the company and was quite a big deal because it included payloads from NASA and a few other groups. Despite this success, we are approaching a full year without a suborbital test and very little in terms of updates from the company. This brings up the question of what has SpinLaunch been up to and when can we expect to see this full system in action. Based on third party reporting, it seems as if this entire time SpinLaunch has been continuing to try and find a location for an Orbital Accelerator. A process that is proving to be much more difficult than originally thought. While the suborbital variant is good for testing, if the company truly wants to test this system and reach space, the Orbital accelerator is the next big step
