Rocket Lab

The 1,000th Rutherford engine has rolled off the production line🎉The world's first 3D printed, battery-powered rocket engine is now one of the most manufactured rocket engines on Earth.   Congratulations to the production and development teams behind Rutherford. You make the most complex engineering and manufacturing feats look easy.

It was an honor to host the Chief of Space Operations General Chance Saltzman @SpaceForceCSO at Rocket Lab recently. From responsive launch to advanced spacecraft, we’re proud to play a central role in securing the ultimate high ground for the @USSpaceForce.

Turning sunlight into survival - the role Rocket Lab solar cells play in the Artemis missions.

It’s time to vote ahead of this year’s $RKLB Annual Shareholders’ Meeting on May 20, 2026. Shareholders of record can vote now for or against a number of proposals by the Rocket Lab Board of Directors. We encourage all shareholders to vote with the Rocket Lab Board’s recommendations on all matters. Learn more: investors.rocketlabcorp.com/annual-meeting

Rocket Lab Robotics is coming 🤖 Our acquisition strategy is proven and effective: identify the best space technologies that have struggled to scale, and bring them into the Rocket Lab ecosystem. That’s what we’re doing with Motiv Space Systems, adding Mars-proven robotics heritage to our rapidly expanding capabilities. As leaders in motion control systems and precision mechanisms, Motiv will also bring in-house traditionally costly and supply-constrained spacecraft components including solar array drive assemblies, antenna and propulsion gimbals, filter wheels, focus mechanisms, and precision drive electronics.

Successful stage separation test campaign ✅ We're validating stage separation for Neutron, one of the most novel rocket separation systems ever designed. From sep system design, component testing and qualification, GSE design, manufacturing, commissioning, and operations planning through to test execution - we're proving out the technology behind one of Neutron's most critical events for mission success. Up next: moving into intentional off-nominal separation events with non-flight test articles to further push the system's resilience.

It's all gas no breaks with Archimedes engine testing at @NASAStennis. Full duration burns with TVC motions across the full conical sweep, vacuum engine hot fires, and both Archimedes test cells in operation all day every day. Archimedes is coming 🔥

🚨 Acquisition Alert: We're welcoming Motiv Space Systems to the Rocket Lab team. Motiv is renowned for its advanced robotic arms, actuators, and drive electronics that have enabled some of the most ambitious missions, including NASA’s Mars Perseverance rover. Motiv will also bring in-house critical spacecraft mechanisms such as solar array drive assemblies, antenna and propulsion gimbals, filter wheels, focus mechanisms, and precision drive electronics, completing another key element of our strategy to manufacture satellites at constellation scale

We've signed the largest launch contract in Rocket Lab history: 5x Neutron launches and 3x Electron launches across LC-1 and LC-3 from now through to 2029. With Neutron's manifest filling up fast through to the end of the decade, the demand signal is clear: the market needs medium launch and assured access to space. We're ready to deliver with Neutron.

We're partnering with @anduriltech to deliver commercial speed and innovation to hypersonics tech development for the @deptofwar. With Anduril tech on multiple HASTE launches, we're working together to deliver Mach 5 capabilities and beyond for future defense missions. First mission launching within 12 months.

Tune in to our Q1 2026 financial results call at 5pm ET: edge.media-server.com/mmc/p/dg86fp3o

The strongest quarter in Rocket Lab history

Great having @SenTimKaine visit the home of Neutron, Electron, and HASTE on the Eastern Shore. We share and appreciate the Senator’s commitment to ensuring the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport becomes a hub for national security, interplanetary science and exploration!
