    Plan for spnning tunnel for year-round skiing

    Picture MUST credit: Snowtunnel

    A giant rotating barrel-like wheel is set to make skiing an all year round pastime anywhere in the world.

    The Snowtunnel is a ski training facility that puts skiers and snowboarders inside an endless slope where the snow's perpetually freshly groomed.

    The plan by the Australian startup behind it is for the massive cylinders to be 12.5 m in diameter and 16 m deep.

    Snow is layered inside from snow guns.

    As the tunnel spins, users manoeuvre from side to side, similar to riding a wave on a surfboard.

    Each rotating tunnel will have a driver to control the ground speed for people using it.

    It can go from below walking pace for beginners going up to an equivalent ground speed of 50 km/h for experienced skiers.

    There will constantly be 70-100 mm of fresh snow to ride on.

    A secret process prevents snow from falling on skiers as the Snowtunnel turns.

    Gantries that sit above the rider are said to be able to protect riders should there be any snowfall areas.

    The tunnels break down allowing them to be shipped worldwide.

    OPS: Render of the Snowtunnel.

    A plan to launch satellites into space by spinning them around and then using centrifugal forces to hurl them into the sky like a stone from a catapult, has been unveiled.The system is more eco-friendly than burning rocket fuel because the launch system uses electric power.The system, called SpinLaunch is aimed at putting 200 kilogram class satellites into low earth orbit. It is also substantially less expensive as well as environmentally sustainable according to the team behind it.The operation is currently being tested with the use of what the US firm calls a Suborbital Accelerator at a base in New Mexico, USA.This is a circular steel vacuum chamber weighing 1,000 tons steel vacuum which stands upright and with what looks like a chimney , called the exit tunnel, attached.Distance from the ground to the top of the chimney-like funnel is 50.4 metes, four metres higher than the Statue of Liberty.The satellite is whirled around at speeds of between 800 mph and 5,000 mph / 1,287 km/h and 8,046 km/h inside attached to a giant carbon fibre arm called a tether, until the moment of release.The satellite then shoots up the tunnel into the sky.

    A plan to launch satellites into space by spinning them around and then using centrifugal forces to hurl them into the sky like a stone from a catapult, has been unveiled.The system is more eco-friendly than burning rocket fuel because the launch system uses electric power.The system, called SpinLaunch is aimed at putting 200 kilogram class satellites into low earth orbit. It is also substantially less expensive as well as environmentally sustainable according to the team behind it.The operation is currently being tested with the use of what the US firm calls a Suborbital Accelerator at a base in New Mexico, USA.This is a circular steel vacuum chamber weighing 1,000 tons steel vacuum which stands upright and with what looks like a chimney , called the exit tunnel, attached.Distance from the ground to the top of the chimney-like funnel is 50.4 metes, four metres higher than the Statue of Liberty.The satellite is whirled around at speeds of between 800 mph and 5,000 mph / 1,287 km/h and 8,046 km/h inside attached to a giant carbon fibre arm called a tether, until the moment of release.The satellite then shoots up the tunnel into the sky.
