- Payload integration complete. The StriX satellite for @synspective has been encapsulated on Electron ahead of our next mission to low Earth orbit for their Earth-imaging constellation. 'Ten Owl Of Ten' - our 90th Electron launch - is scheduled for launch NET June 18 NZT.
- More rockets in the hangar at LC-1 than we’ve ever had before. We’re lining up a busy few weeks of back-to-back-to-back-to-back launches from the world’s first private orbital launch site 🚀🚀🚀🚀
- Rocket Lab is being added to the Nasdaq-100 Index. This is a landmark moment for the team. We're incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved, and even more excited about what is still to come.
- Fresh rockets rolling off the line. Factory is busier than ever. Our 100th Electron rocket is in this lineup.
- “Launch is access to space and if you don’t have access to space, everything else is irrelevant.” Peter Beck joins @edels0n to talk about what it means to be an end-to-end space company, the biggest challenges in space that need solving, and what the industry will look like over
- We're preparing for our next Electron launch from LC-1 for @synspective (our 10th to deploy their Earth-observation constellation) with our upcoming mission 'Ten Owl Of Ten' 🦉 Launch window opens NET June 18: 🚀 8:40 am NZST 🚀 5:40 am JST 🚀 20:40 UTC (June 17) 🚀 4:40 pm ET
- Rocket Lab 🤝 Mars From orbiters and landers to rovers and helicopters – our technology has enabled some of the most ambitious Mars missions in history. With Motiv (creators of Perseverance's robotic arm) now part of Rocket Lab, we're one of the few companies capable of
- Sneak peek of our recent Archimedes engine fit check to Neutron's Stage 1 thrust structure.
Why we fit test: 🔧To make sure all interfaces between the engine and the rest of Neutron work in real-life as they do in the design space. 🚀Prepare for integration to fully assemble Neutron for test before launch. - We have successfully passed System Requirements Review for the Space Development Agency's Tracking Layer Tranche 3 constellation. This milestone advances the program that will see Rocket Lab deliver satellites equipped with advanced missile warning, tracking, and defense
