Abstract

See full text

A device for assembling, transporting and launching rockets carrying a payload for transportation into space includes a ship and a floatable structure. The ship includes facilities on a covered deck to assemble multiple rockets in a horizontal orientation. The assembled rockets are hoisted from the ship to the floatable platform in a horizontal orientation. The floatable structure includes a hanger for the rockets, and facilities necessary for moving each horizontally oriented rocket to a launching pad, and for raising the rocket into a vertical position. A control room, onboard the ship, permits monitoring and control of the assembly of the rocket onboard the ship and of the launching of the rocket from the floatable platform.
