Scientists are developing a wild new idea that could one day give us practically limitless energy from the Moon, and it all revolves around a giant “catapult”-style launch system that works like a hammer throw. Chinese researchers recently proposed this concept: a massive fifty-meter-long spinning arm on the lunar surface that whips capsules fast enough to reach the Moon’s escape velocity. Instead of using rockets, the system would build up speed, release the payload at just the right moment, and send it flying straight into space. If this works, it could launch materials, fuel, or even harvested lunar resources incredibly cheaply, opening the door to huge energy projects that aren’t possible on Earth because of gravity and cost. And in this video, you’ll see how this futuristic catapult could completely change how we power our civilization.
