Leik Myrabo

Summary

  • Leik Myrabo of the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute has demonstrated in recent tests the feasibility of using ground-based lasers to propel objects into orbit; possibly reducing orbit-flight costs by a factor of 1000. The test succeeded in reaching over 100 feet, which compares to Robert Goddard's first test flight of his rocket design.
