:You wouldn't even need a cannon/catapult.  If you put the satellite on a small rocket, and put that on a much larger rocket, you can have the big one launch itself, the smaller one, and the satellite.  The regulation only says the satellite must be in a non-self-launching launch vehicle.  It doesn't say it can't *also* be in a self-launching launch vehicle.  -- [[Special:Contributions/108.162.246.113|108.162.246.113]] 20:06, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
