Columbiad: "Our Industrial Sounding System (ISS) is a fully portable gun launch system capable of providing low-cost sounding flights from any road accessible site on Earth. Economical glide probes are able of carrying payloads to altitudes of more than 100 km and our rocket assisted probes will carry payloads to 250 km or more. With a normal launch rate of 2 flights an hour and rapid launch rates of up to 6 flights an hour this system is capable of providing inexpensive access to space for a wide variety of research projects.
Our Industrial Sounding System is also a scale prototype for an industrial capacity satellite launching system and will be used to develop the technologies for satellite launching. Although not intended as a primary launch service, the prototype satellite launching vehicle for the ISS is designed to demonstrate all of the functions of a normal satellite launcher, and will be capable of placing small nano-satelites into low Earth orbit."
