"SpinLaunch is raising $30 million to use large centrifuges to power
catapult to
launch payloads into space. They use large centrifuges to store energy and
will
then rapidly transfer that momentum into a catapult to send a payload to
space at
up to 4,800 kilometers per hour (3,000 mph). If successful, the
acceleration
architecture is projected to be both lower cost and use much less power,
with the
price of a single space launch reduced to under US$500,000."

Feasible?

Is strikes me that someone has read The Brick Moon by Edward Everett Hale.
