Founded in New Zealand by Peter Beck in 2006 and now headquartered in Long Beach, California, the company listed on Nasdaq in 2021. It began by launching satellites on the small Electron rocket, expanded into building satellite buses and components, and is developing Neutron, a medium-lift rocket for heavier payloads. Because launch and satellite manufacturing sit inside the same company, defence and reconnaissance programmes can hand it a whole job rather than splitting one.
