Simple life. Only using X to follow and interact with other RKLB investors. I still say ridiculous things - but I don’t post them to the web.

@MrsIglesiasRKLB Hubble rescue mission to boost its orbit - is there any interest or possibility in RKLB submitting a bid? Rocket Lab Robotics to secure Hubble and boost…He had a Space Shuttle on his desk for all those years, the same vechicle that put Hubble in orbit!)

Apologies, I can’t help myself. Super excited for Q3 results! Love the RKLB management team.

@daveginvesting Ah, you know, Grok did the calculations for me 😂

[dan black @dantheblackman]

@daveginvesting The 20 T figure is going to be for a fully expendable rocket - the known engine output determines that.

Also - they will need to figure out carbon fiber composite domes. RKLB lab has extensive history with it, and still struggled. Fly is still struggling with it.

[dan black @dantheblackman]

@RKLBMan I 100% agree with you. Plenty of people have burned billions of dollars, and never gotten to space. All while trying to secure launches for other satellites, while not receiving any meaningful cash flow from their constellation…they will end up selling/being bought for spectrum

@pharmdaz Launch is a commodity.

[dan black @dantheblackman]

@daveginvesting There is an interesting metric - the more capacity they give grok bot, the less compute they can rent out. Running grok bot is a losing proposition for them right now.

@MrsIglesiasRKLB Just locked in my trade too 😎

[dan black @dantheblackman]

@MoreMorganB There’s a Claude for that!

[dan black @dantheblackman]

@grok Thank you. Considering MOTIV has on orbit robotic arms to capture and secure Hubble, experience with precise orbital insertion, use of kick stages and technical gravity assist burns… Also; swooping in to save NASA seems like a great character arc for SPB.

If y’all have the pleasure of speaking with SPB and AS after Q3 earnings, I’d love to know if Rocket Lab will throw their hat in the ring!

First thrust structure - out the door. Second thrust structure - already on the production floor.

[Rocket Lab @RocketLab]

Neutron’s Stage 2 and Thrust Module have arrived to Launch Complex 3 – another major step forward for the team that brings us closer to Neutron’s debut.

@RealMattMoney Can I be a non-shook baby who is waiting for funds to settle in the account?

[dan black @dantheblackman]

@daveginvesting Honestly - I think governmental.

Now that we have a comms play, there is an opportunity cost to launch someone else’s payload. Peter has stated, off hand, that they will need to reserve half of Neutron manifest for internal use. The rest - maybe reserved for their NSSL lane.

@maddireidy Super excited for steady Neuteon progress! These updates are loads of fun.

I know this has been out of the news cycle for a bit, but no real word or updates on MTO?

[dan black @dantheblackman]

@RealMattMoney This picture 😂😂. Matt, is this accidently bad, ironically bad, or are you sluthing for engagement? (If so, you have been successful)
