@RocketLab@Peter_J_Beck
From Flight 1 to 100, our Founder and CEO @peter_j_beck has had many memorable moments in nearly a decade of launches.
"It is super hard and the team just does an amazing, amazing job."
Electron opened access to space, but 100 launches is just the start.
There's 55+ Rocket Lab spacecraft in development and production, multiple missions operating on orbit today, and $1b+ worth of launches booked across all three of our rocket programs - Electron, HASTE and Neutron.
We're delivering spacecraft and components to the Moon, Mars, and intend to operate our own constellation and space services for millions of people on Earth.
"It's the grand master plan playing out."
@diamond00888@RocketLab Must say it wasn't the onionsπ , there was a tear in the eye ,,,,so good for the whole loyal Rocketlab community ππππ
What an achievement β₯οΈ
New Zealand is where it all started for Electron - a country with no space heritage.
Today, Rocket Lab is a global space company with teams across the United States, Canada, Europe and New Zealand.
We're about to launch our 100th rocket.
