Welcome to Season 3

What disruptive space technologies are on the horizon and how would they fundamentally change the equation of spaceflight if successfully commercialized? We dive into this question and more as part of Season 3 of Nventure’s 🌌 Frontier Entrepreneurship Podcast in conversation with exceptional Canadian entrepreneurs working at “the intersection of curiosity and courage.”

Episode 3

In the third episode in our Canadian SpaceTech Start-up series, Tracy Morningstar (Canadian Council for Indigenous Business) and John Hayden (sitting in for Braden Kemp) are joined by Dr. Carl Mazur, Founder of Vancouver-based Space Launch Technologies. Carl’s team has patented designs in place, and have run advanced simulations showing that an ‘Orbital Launch Air Cannon’ could propel rockets into space with a powerful new ground-based energy source. Could the next sovereign launch site be located at a national historic site and former rocket range near Churchill, Manitoba? And what would that look like?
