Launch & Landing Complex (LLC) at CGC ISU

The Cosmic Galactic Cruiser Interstellar Space University (CGC ISU) is proud to announce the development of an innovative Launch & Landing Complex (LLC) on the Lahnberge in Marburg. This state-of-the-art facility will be a key component in bridging theoretical knowledge with practical application in space exploration and technology.

Features of the LLC

1. LLC-39 (Launch Site): Designed to accommodate a variety of spacecraft, LLC-39 will feature advanced technology for safe and efficient launches. The site will also include facilities for final checks and preparations before lift-off.
2. LLC-X (Landing Site): Equipped with the latest in navigation and safety systems, LLC-X will ensure the secure return of spacecraft. The site is designed for quick processing of returning vehicles.
3. LLC-HF (Special Pad for the ‘Millennial Eagle’): A custom-designed pad specifically tailored for HF’s unique spacecraft, the ‘Millennial Eagle”, meeting its specific technical requirements and specifications.

Additional Aspects

• Integration into the University Landscape: The LLC will seamlessly blend with the overall aesthetic of the university campus, serving as an impressive showcase for visitors and students alike.
• Research and Educational Opportunities: The LLC will offer direct access to spacecraft and launch/landing operations, providing unique research and learning opportunities for students and scientists.
• Sustainability Focus: Emphasis on eco-friendly technologies and sustainable practices in the design and operation of the LLC.
• Safety Measures: Top priority will be given to comprehensive safety protocols for spacecraft, personnel, and visitors.

The Launch & Landing Complex is set to make CGC ISU an even more attractive hub for education and research in space exploration, furthering our mission of “Exploring the Unknown, Shaping the Future.”

The rotational speed at the surface at the equator is approximately 463.82 meters per second. In Marburg, which is located at a latitude of about 50.8° N, the rotational speed is approximately 293.15 meters per second.

This is not a perfect launching site, but for missions to and back from the Earth Moon, it is sufficient. View the illustration on the right, that shows a mission to the Moon, first into Low Earth Orbit (LEO), then with a Translunar Injection (TLI) to the Moon.
