$RKLB Aside from all the doom and gloom of the shorts on this thread I thought I would provide some information. Did you know the carbon fiber technology at Rocket Lab is nothing new. It has been used on every Electron, the main body fuselage, structure, tanks, payload fairing. Electron only weighs 2,750 lbs dry weight just 10% of it's launch weight. It's 59' tall and 3'- 11" in diameter, let that sink in. Most other rockets are 15-20% of launch weight. That's efficiency and innovation at work. Neutron will be over one million lbs liftoff weight vs Electrons 28,660 lbs. Firefly's Alpha rocket is also carbon fiber. Rocket Lab will solve the carbon fiber issue for Neutron. They 3-D print engines and other parts with electron beam melting using robotics. This is an advanced manufacturing company that makes all parts in house.
