📆 2021, #AstraSpace went public at a "pro-forma enterprise value of approximately $2.1 billion" 💰.The company's stock even traded above 📈 this valuation. But then, rockets started failing 💥. Only two of the seven launches of the company's "Rocket 3" vehicle were successful.
It faces stiff competition from #RocketLab, #Firefly, #ABLSpace and #StokeSpace. Additionally, all of these small launch companies have been undercut in price 〽️ by #SpaceX https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/03/after-astra-loses-99-percent-of-its-value-founders-take-rocket-firm-private/ -

#ULA Business Risks
• Reusability: #Vulcan is not reusable 🗑️ - although designs are underway to eject its #BE4 engines post-launch and recover them via an inflatable heat shield and parachute.
• Competition: Vulcan competes with #SpaceX’s #Falcon9
• ULA’s profitability has seen a decline 📉 from a peak of ~$650M 💰 in 2016 to ~$80M 💵 in 2023 primarily due to the Vulcan transition and share loss to SpaceXhttps://payloadspace.com/blue-origins-ula-investment-case-payload-research/

@intengineering 📆 Mar 27, 2023 #SpaceX charges $67 million 💵 per #Falcon 9 launch, and Spice said #RocketLab aims to match this on a cost-per-kilogram basis. #Neutron, which will have a slightly lower payload capacity of 28,660 lbs (13,000 kg) to #LEO, will target a "$50 million to $55 million 💵 launch service cost". Neutron is still on track for its first launch 🚀 next year. https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/rocket-lab-says-reusable-neutron-will-compete-directly-with-falcon-9
@NewSpaceEconomy 📆 June 6, 2022 #RocketLab : when #Neutron begins offering commercial #LaunchServices sometime in the future, #Falcon 9 will not be the only competition Neutron will be compared against by customers deciding on a launch service provider. Of particular note, #SpaceX’s #Starship, a super heavy lift launch vehicle, will be available for commercial service years before Neutron. Starship’s payload capacity and cost per kilogram will be orders of magnitude better than Neutron. https://newspaceeconomy.ca/2023/06/22/that-dog-wont-hunt-rocket-labs-neutron-space-launch-vehicle
