The new space race standings after today's Rocket Lab Iridium acquisition:
๐ฅSpaceX: rockets + 10,413 satellites, + $11.4B revenue
๐ฅRocket Lab: rockets + 66 satellites + $1.5B combined revenue
๐ฅBlue Origin: rockets
25 years. Billions spent. Jeff Bezos is in third place. $RKLB $SPCX
@booster_10 On the flip side, regular reoccurring revenue and a new vertical of growth will help stabilize and could be a foundation for the price as launch variability comes in
@ashleevance People think this is Peter Beck starting a war, I donโt even think itโs close. Iโm a huge fan of $RKLB but theyโre just getting started. Itโs a long long road ahead
@RADHardTech Honestly $IRDM is losing so much market cap already to $SPCX in maritime. I donโt think the investment is a bad one but will be interesting to see the direct financial ROI play out
Rocket Lab is a great company making a smart move for $RKLB shareholders.
But investors treating this as a Starlink threat are misreading the scoreboard entirely.
The moat just got confirmed, not challenged.

Everyone is calling the Rocket Lab x Iridium deal a declaration of war on Starlink.
The data tells a completely different story.
Lets look at the numbers that the headlines are missing. ๐งต $RKLB $IRDM $SPCX
Here is the kicker.
Iridiumโs own CEO admitted before this deal that maritime customers were already migrating away from Iridium to Starlink faster than expected.
Rocket Lab just acquired a business that Starlink was already eating alive in its most competitive segments.
I'm tracking launches, constellation health, and the revenue-per-satellite ratio weekly.
Follow for data-driven Starlink analysis, it's about to get exciting.
What metric are you watching on $SPCX? Drop it below๐
Everyone is talking about Starlink's subscriber count
Nobody is talking about revenue per satellite.
That's the metric that tells you whether this business actually compounds.
Here's the math, and why it changes everything. $SPCX ๐งต
The bull thesis in one sentence:
Every launch adds capacity that costs less per bit than the last one, serving a subscriber base that is adding 20K+ users/day, at 63% EBITDA margins that no terrestrial telco in history has ever achieved.
The compounding is structural, not cyclical.
