Inversion unveils Arc, a spacecraft for 1-hour global delivery. (News18 Hindi)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

In what could redefine the future of global logistics, a US-based startup named Inversion has unveiled a revolutionary space delivery system capable of delivering essential goods to any corner of the planet within an hour. The spacecraft, aptly named \u2018Arc\u2019, promises to make one-hour global delivery, from orbit, a reality.<\/p>\n

Unveiled in Los Angeles by Inversion\u2019s co-founders Justin Fiasetti and Austin Briggs, Arc is designed to transport up to 500 pounds (around 225 kilograms) of cargo directly from space to Earth. The company, founded in 2021, says the vehicle has already completed four successful test flights and will first be deployed for US military operations in 2026, before expanding to commercial use.<\/p>\n

Arc: A Spacecraft Unlike Any Other<\/h2>\n

Arc is a lifting-body spacecraft, meaning it can maneuver through Earth\u2019s atmosphere without the need for wings or a runway. Measuring approximately eight feet in length and four feet in width, it descends using a parachute system, allowing it to land almost anywhere, even in open fields or remote regions.<\/p>\n

According to a report in Ars Technica<\/em>, Arc will be stationed in low Earth orbit (LEO), ready to re-enter the atmosphere upon command. It will travel at Mach 20 (over 24,000 km\/h) during re-entry, protected by a robust heat shield capable of withstanding temperatures as high as 3,000 degrees Celsius. Once it enters the atmosphere, parachutes ensure a soft, precise landing.<\/p>\n

The spacecraft is expected to remain operational in orbit for up to five years, during which it can deliver a range of supplies, from medical kits and emergency relief materials to drones and other critical equipment.<\/p>\n
