FIELD: rocket-and-space engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to rocket-and-space engineering, namely, to launching complexes of carrier rockets (CR) and space CR launching method. Launching system for launching space rockets without using 1st stage includes round vertical shaft, solid rocket fuel (SRF) and movable platform. A capsule consisting of a powder booster and a carrier rocket with a payload output to earth orbit is installed on the platform. SRF is made in the form of cones and is located in the lower part of the shaft. Space between them is filled with water. Nozzles for additional water injection are installed on the shaft inner surface. Pressure of the superheated steam is given by initial acceleration of the capsule in the shaft, followed by CR acceleration with the powder booster.
EFFECT: reduced time of bringing CR into orbit.
