1 announcement that the company has launched a new US subsidiary, Rocket Lab National Security, to specifically focus on defense and intelligence business from the US and its allies. Rocket Lab is expecting to launch its first Electron rocket on U.S. Rocket Lab Electron vs SpaceX Falcon 9 (Source: Everyday Astronaut) Therefore, the company is not really a direct competitor to these larger players but complementary in fulfilling the needs of customers, large and small, to access the space. Compared with Blue Origin's New Glenn and SpaceX's Falcon 9, which are huge rockets, Rocket Lab's Electron rockets are only 56 ft tall with payloads of 497 pounds (225kgs). With its specialty in supporting the small satellite industry, Rocket Lab aims to provide "frequent, dedicated launch opportunities to customers' preferred orbits", whose payload may not need to be large. These launches of large rockets are more likely met with weather or technical issues. Usually, most smaller satellites had to piggyback on rockets dedicated to their larger kin for a ride to reach the orbit. Rocket Lab is specialized in smaller payload missions. This Moon-orbiting space station is part of NASA's Artemis program, which will ultimately pace the way for human exploration of the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
The spacecraft's main mission is to test a unique, elongated lunar orbit as a pathfinder for Gateway. The company successfully completed the translunar injection via Photo that sent NASA's CAPSTONE (Cislunar Autonomous Positioning System Technology Operations and Navigation Experiment) spacecraft to the moon. It is a close partner to NASA in this mission. In light of the recent NASA Artemis Mission to the moon, we want to take a look at Rocket Lab, the only publicly listed rocket company of its kind currently. The company went public in August 2021 on Nasdaq through a SPAC merger. Its Electron rocket deployed customer satellites for Earth imaging, weather monitoring, and ship tracking. (It's important to look at both segments, and we will do so below.) The company aims to make it faster, easier, and more affordable to access space with an established track record of mission success. It has two Products & Services: Launch Services and Space Systems. The company is an end-to-end space company that delivers launch services, spacecraft components, satellites, and other spacecraft and on-orbit management solutions. Rocket Lab was founded in New Zealand by engineer Peter Beck in 2006 and established a headquarter in California in 2013 to develop the expendable Electron rocket. We recommend investors take a long-term view of this stock and buy it for their children or grandchildren as a "ticket to the moon".
It is on track to grow into an all-around rocket company with strong momentum in revenue growth. defense program along with other commercial customers. It also has numerous contracts in the U.S. Rocket Lab ( NASDAQ: RKLB) has a successful launch record that makes it a partner with NASA in its Artemis Mission.
