About Rocket Lab

Rocket Lab delivers launch services, spacecraft design and manufacturing, satellite components, and on-orbit operations. It operates rockets such as Electron for small-satellite orbital launches and develops a medium-lift vehicle called Neutron for larger payloads. The company offers a family of spacecraft buses (e.g., Photon, Pioneer, Lightning, Explorer) suitable for a variety of missions, from low-Earth orbit communications and remote sensing to deep-space research. It also supplies satellite subsystems (solar arrays, star trackers, radios, separation systems, etc.) and ground software and mission-operations support. Rocket Lab enables customers across commercial, civil, defense, and research sectors to deploy and operate satellites and spacecraft under one integrated provider.
