Chief Technical Officer
Dr. John W. Hunter serves as Chief Technical Officer at Green Launch and brings extensive expertise in high-velocity propulsion systems. A physicist by training, he previously led the SHARP project at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, giving him deep technical insight into advanced launch concepts and extreme-speed testing environments. At Green Launch, he helps guide the development of light-gas propulsion applications for sub-orbital and high-altitude payload missions. His background is especially valuable for organizations that need disciplined test planning, sound engineering judgment, and a strong understanding of how payloads behave under demanding launch conditions. Dr. Hunter's leadership supports Green Launch's mission to provide practical, lower-cost access to specialized testing opportunities for research and aerospace customers.
Strategic Outreach
Eric Robinson leads Strategic Outreach for Green Launch and contributes a strong blend of systems science, entrepreneurship, and aerospace application knowledge. His experience includes fluid delivery systems relevant to advanced launch and payload environments, helping bridge technical capabilities with customer mission needs. In his role, he works closely with research organizations and commercial partners to align testing objectives, payload requirements, and program planning. For pharmaceutical payload testing clients, that means clearer communication, better coordination, and a more practical path from concept to flight. Eric helps ensure that Green Launch's specialized capabilities are translated into workable testing solutions for organizations seeking high-altitude access, environmental exposure data, and efficient mission support.
Chairman of the Board
Don Whitney serves as Chairman of the Board at Green Launch and brings valuable operational perspective shaped by his experience as an Air Force pilot and environmental consultant. His background supports the company's planning, oversight, and mission execution efforts, particularly where disciplined operations and environmental considerations intersect. For high-altitude pharmaceutical payload testing, his experience helps reinforce a thoughtful approach to launch readiness, field coordination, and responsible program development. Don's leadership contributes to Green Launch's broader goal of making advanced launch services more practical and sustainable for specialized customers. His combination of aviation and environmental expertise adds an important layer of strategic guidance as the company expands its testing and payload delivery capabilities.
A high altitude test evaluates how a payload performs when exposed to upper-atmosphere conditions such as reduced pressure, temperature variation, acceleration, and flight stress. For pharmaceutical payloads, this can help validate packaging, instrumentation, structural integrity, and data collection systems before more advanced missions. It is commonly used for research, qualification, and mission planning.
