A Chinese aerospace startup, Zhiyu Aerospace Technology (Z-Trak Space), is developing a novel rocket launch system that utilizes supercritical carbon dioxide. This "CO2 rocket" technology aims to achieve low-cost, high-frequency launches by using the pressurized gas to eject the rocket, with engines igniting mid-air. This approach could eliminate the need for traditional launch pads and reduce reliance on fixed infrastructure. AI
