Next #rocketlab launch is set for tomorrow.
#WeWillNeverDesertYou will be Rocket Lab's third launch for Capella in 2023.
We Will Never Desert You will launch Acadia-2 (an EO satellite) into a 635 km circular orbit from New Zealand.
There have been rumors that this launch will feature a booster with 9 previously flown engines. Assuming everything works as expected, the next step in the recovery program should be launching a previously flown booster!

Once again, #rocketlab is capturing customers from other small launchers.
Today Rocket Lab announced they inked a deal with Japanese Earth Imaging company iQPS to launch their satellite into orbit!
Originally, the satellite was supposed to launch on Virgin Orbit's LauncherOne.

More exciting news from #rocketlab
Rocket Lab just announced that they are launching 2 satellites for #nasa in 2024.
The 2 satellites are part of the PREFIRE mission and will monitor the artic ice caps.
We also have an update on the previous aborted launch for Cappella space. Rocket Lab seems to have fixed the issue is is now targeting NET August 24th!

Looks like my favorite #BlueOrigin program got an award by NASA!
They got $35M to further develop their blue alchemist solar tech!
According to NASA, a technology like Blue Alchemist is considered at a Tipping Point if the agency’s investment can help grow the innovation into a viable commercial solution. Today’s investment will result in a demonstration of autonomous operation in a simulated lunar environment by 2026.

Rocket Lab's next mission (#welovethenightlife) will launch from pad B in New Zealand!
If they manage to launch on July 28th, it will be the fastest launchpad cadence we've ever seen.
The current record is 18 days from the TROPICS launches. We Love The Night Life would shatter that record with a cadence of just 10 days!

I created a database of more than 100 satellite reaction wheels for research purposes.
It is available here (completely free) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IS0XbMA5zLc3mczK42XMRQzNv0tOGimWXB2QKcp1FTk/edit?usp=sharing
What is a reaction wheel? A reaction wheel is basically like a gyroscope used for satellites to orient themself in space.
Like I mentioned before, the database is completely free to use, but if you use this database in an article or smth I would appreciate a shout out. 😊
I did try to make this database as accurate as possible, but due to the amount of entries, there will be mistakes. Always check the datasheet for the most accurate info.
If I do find mistakes, the google sheets will be updated with the correct info.

#rocketlab just announced their next mission.
It is called "We Love The Night Life" and it is a dedicated launch for Capella Space.
This mission will launch the first of their next generation Acadia satellites and is set to launch on 28 July 2023. That is just 10 days after the previous launch.
The Electron rocket will take off from LC-1 in New-Zealand. It is currently unknown if Electron will take off from pad A or B. If they launch from pad B, it will be the fastest time Rocket Lab has relaunched a rocket on the same pad.On top of that, #WeLoveTheNightLife will be the 40th Electron launch (including HASTE) to date!

The #rocketlab #BabyComeBack mission is a success!
All 7 payloads were deployed in their desired orbit and the booster was successfully recovered. Great job Rocket Lab!
We also learned a few things during the webcast:
First of all, the next launch is only in about 10 days!
If they managed to launch in 10 days, they would almost beat their launch cadence record of just 8 days.Secondly we got to see official footage of the #HASTE launch!

#rocketlab just got another launch contract from Synspective, bringing the total contracted launches to 6!
Synspective is an Earth observation company focused on SAR imaging.
To date, Rocket Lab has been the sole launcher of the Synspective constellation.Another cool thing mentioned in the press release:
"In addition to providing Synspective with a high degree over schedule and orbit by flying as a dedicated mission, Rocket Lab also delivers the unique ability to perform an advanced mid-mission maneuver with the Electron rocket’s Kick Stage to shield the StriX satellite from the sun to reduce radiation exposure ahead of payload deployment."
The launches are planned for late 2023.

So after reading a bit more about the #BlueOrigin engine mishap, this is what we know:
1) ULA: ULA has already received the two BE4 engines needed for the inaugural launch of #vulcan.
This mishap will have no impact on the launch date of Vulcan.2) Blue Origin: The engine in question had previously failed an ATP (Acceptance Test) and was reworked.
After static firing the engine, the engine exploded thus failing the ATP a second time (and last time).Failing ATP's is not uncommon, especially when you're ramping up production. It's better to fail an ATP than cause a failed launch.
According to Tory Bruno, this is not a big issue and is not uncommon. It's more about scrap rate than anything.

#ASTRA is looking to raise $65 million to keep the doors open.
Assuming a constant burn rate that will give them enough money to keep going until Q1 2024.
By then Rocket 4.0 hopefully would've launched and the Astra Space engine would be generating non-negligible amounts of revenue.
In their latest annual report they mentioned that they had 278 engines in backlog, at 250k per engine, that is almost $70M in revenue or close to 30-$35M in earnings.

The #psyche mission is almost ready for launch!
The Psyche mission will explore a metal-rich asteroid which is called... well... Psyche!
The launch window opens in October and it will be launched on a Falcon Heavy.
Due to the 1 year delay, they need to take a different route to the asteroid. The new plan is to do a flyby of mars and do a gravity assist.
Psyche uses electric propulsion, which means it needs lots of power. Here is where #rocketlab comes in, they will provide the solar panels to power the spacecraft.
Psyche will reach Psyche in 2029.

Next #rocketlab launch is planned NET 14 July.
The booster will be recovered via ocean recovery.
The upcoming launch will be a rideshare launch, the first rideshare mission in over a year!
The mission will carry several payloads for NASA, SFL and Spire.
The Electron launching the #BabyComeBack mission has a couple of upgrades to improve re-usability!
