The Benefits of Launching Rockets East
When launching rockets east, the Earth's rotation provides a speed boost, allowing rockets to reach orbit more efficiently. This is due to the Earth's rotation speed, which is fastest at the equator. Launching from the equator can provide the maximum speed boost, allowing for savings in fuel and increased payload capacity.
