Launch Platforms

Launch platforms are structures or vehicles used to transport and position rockets or spacecraft for launch. They can be fixed, like a tall tower or pad at a space center, or mobile, such as ships or trucks that move to different locations. They provide the stability and support needed to safely hold the rocket during fueling and countdown before launch. Once everything is ready, the platform releases the rocket, enabling it to ascend into space. Essentially, launch platforms serve as the starting point and support system for space missions, ensuring a safe and efficient departure for spacecraft.
