Virgin Orbit
AirLaunch Explained

Virgin Orbit is on a mission to make space more accessible through AirLaunch — a transformative new launch system capable of launching a rocket from anywhere on Earth.

Supercluster was asked to help explain what sets AirLaunch apart. We created a short film that explains the history and future of AirLaunch, and the impact this technology will have on the rapidly expanding New Space economy.

Using a mix of hand-drawn cel animation, stop motion, and archival footage, we make the case that 35,000 feet in the air might just be the best place to launch a rocket.

Completed by our team at Space Agency, the creative studio born from Supercluster.
