How Rocket Lab is Dominating SpaceX
Today’s video discusses how RocketLab is dominating SpaceX. In the private space industry, it might appear that there is SpaceX and then there is everyone. Only Blue Origin, sponsored by its multi-billion dollar founder Jeff Bezos, seems to be able to attract the same attention. And Blue Origin has never been beyond suborbital space yet.
Rocket lab soon might have something to say about that duopoly. The company, based in New Zealand and headquartered in Long Beach, California, is second only to SpaceX in terms of launch frequency - these two are the only American companies to regularly breach the orbit. Its electron rocket flew 18 times in less than four years and has delivered about 100 satellites into space, and its launch only failed twice.
On March 1, the company made its ambitions clear when it unveiled plans for a new rocket called Neutron. At 40 meters long and capable of carrying 20 times the weight that electron can, Neutron is being hailed by the Rocket Lab as its entry into the major satellite markets and mega-constellation
launches, as well as future robot missions to the moon and Mars. Even more impressive, Rocket Rock claims that Neutron will also be built for human spaceflight. The company calls it the "direct alternative" to the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.
