Abstract: A launch pad is an important part of the launch vehicle system. It bears the weight of launch vehicles and payloads, and is burnt due to the high-temperature and high-pressure gas flow during launch. This study analyzes the development of launch pads in the world, reviews a reconfigurable mobile launch pad for multiple launchers, then proposes common points and development trends of future launch pads in the world.
