RocketLab CEO Peter Beck on Neutron's delays: "It's a rocket program. I think every rocket CEO is probably inflicted with the same optimism than reality." "It's one thing to put a rocket on the pad & just fly it once. I mean, that's super important, but the question that...

$RKLB Neutron will be the largest carbon fiber structure to ever fly once it's completed. Some critics say it's not realistic because it would be the first carbon fiber structure of that size to fly, but I'd argue Rocket Lab is pretty good at firsts: "We were the first to 3D print a rocket engine and put it into orbit. We were the first to do an all carbon composite rocket and put it into orbit. We were the first to do all fiber optically networked avionics suite on a launch vehicle and put it into orbit." — Sir Peter Beck, Rocket Lab CEO

"It's nice to do something before Elon Musk for once." Rocket Lab CEO Peter Beck on the benefits of going public: "I didn't want to build a space company that just lives for the lifetime that I'm running it. It needed to be multi-generational & go on & on & on." "And being a public company really enforces that discipline of profitability‚ & profitability is survival. The rockets & satellites, it's all cool, but at the end of the day, it's all for nothing if your economics aren't there & you're not profitable."

BREAKING: Inside Rocket Lab ( $RKLB ) w/ Sir Peter Beck FULL INTERVIEW (Part I) We sat down with Peter Beck Founder & CEO of Rocket Lab after another record quarter, $234M in revenue & $2.36B in backlog "The lawyers hate me saying it, but global domination is definitely part of the plan." "I didn't want to build a space company that just lives for the lifetime that I'm running it. It needed to be multi-generational." We go deeper into Iridium, Neutron, the $397M Space Force contract to build + launch "Flatellites," & how 81% of revenue last quarter was outside of launch. Covering: › Why the fix for a 9-month lead time was buying the supplier › The $8B Iridium acquisition & why he was surprised nobody saw it coming › Why the Neutron question should be about the 10th rocket, not the 1st › The 24-hour turnaround constraint that produced Hungry Hippo › Flatellites, building satellites for volume rather than one at a time Plus: building a launch industry in New Zealand from zero suppliers & no regulation, staying out of broadband to play in L-band, going public before SpaceX, GHOST & the launch site that ships in a container, & why the Archimedes engines are painted black. 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐒 (00:00) Sir Peter Beck, Founder & CEO at Rocket Lab (00:59) Rocket Lab's biggest quarter (02:53) The competitive edge in Space (04:10) Rocket Lab's Acquisition Strategy (05:04) Reason behind the Iridium Deal (06:13) Competing with Blue Origin & SpaceX (09:56) Rocket Lab's Global Domination (11:19) Building a Launch Monopoly in New Zealand (12:33) Is this why Peter got Knighted?

The most important upgrade to Starship isn't a new Raptor engine or a bigger booster. It's hidden beneath the launch pad. SpaceX is quietly changing how the world's largest rocket is fueled, and it could be the breakthrough that makes rapid reusability possible. #SpaceX #Starship #RocketScience #Cryogenics #Starbase

Something that I wasn’t able to truly internalize with Artemis I, due to the night launch, was just how unreal this rocket looks in flight. Like, that thing isn’t supposed to do that. It’s supposed to sit on the pad looking pretty, yet there it is, flying away.

This New Glenn rocket explosion released 20% of the energy of the Hiroshima atomic bomb and that wasn't even the bad part: → The pad: LC-36 is the only pad on Earth that launches New Glenn and now it's gone. Over $1B to build. SpaceX needed 7 months to rebuild after a similar hit. → The deadline: Amazon needs 1,618 satellites up by July 30 to keep its FCC license. It has ~300. The rocket that was supposed to help fix that just blew up twice in a row SpaceX made us believe that landing rockets on barges was a normal expectation. Turns out rocket science is hard after all. Wishing the team a speedy recovery 🚀

🇺🇸 SUPERCUT - BEZOS’ ROCKET GOES BOOM Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket, owned by Jeff Bezos, exploded on the launch pad in Florida. The rocket was supposed to launch a batch of satellites for Amazon's Leo network, which competes with Starlink. Amazon stated that the satellites were not yet on the rocket at the time of the explosion. Blue Origin stated that the rocket encountered an "anomaly." We can see that, lol. So, Starlink remains the only game in town for now

$RKLB CEO Peter Beck said Neutron is key to scaling payload capacity & lowering launch costs as Rocket Lab pushes deeper into orbital infrastructure. It’s all part of Rocket Lab’s plan to become a vertically integrated space platform which is why Beck joked that “world domination” is part of the thesis.

$RKLB The newly confirmed NASA Chief, Jared Isaacman, mentioned Rocket Lab twice today on Bloomberg: "We're grateful for those that go in commercial industry, whether it's, again, Blue Origin, SpaceX, Rocket Lab" "It is an incredible field of commercial space companies that exist today. I mean, you can talk about Stoke and ULA and Rocket Lab and Firefly." I think it's fair to say Isaacman is set to usher in a new era for commercial space companies and I believe Rocket Lab is best positioned to benefit from it.

$RKLB Rocket Lab heading to Venus is going to be epic! "Rocket Lab has been an incredible partner and they've done an absolutely fantastic job. And when we first teamed up a bunch of years ago, we were slated to go on the Electron. That is Rocket Lab's amazingly reliable, small capacity rocket. But for a variety of reasons, Rocket Lab has put us on the Neutron, their much higher capability rocket." — Professor Seager, Director for the MIT-led Venus Morning Star Missions to Venus For those who don't know, Rocket Lab is set to launch the first private mission to Venus, searching for evidence of organic compounds in the planet’s cloud layer, possible traces of life. The mission is being developed in collaboration with MIT and is privately funded.
