Want to actually start posting here so here’s an intro. I’m an aerospace engineer, maker and aspiring astronaut. I’m a former NASA intern where I worked on the Roman Space Telescope (pictured). Now at Rocket Lab as a manufacturing engineer working on Neutron

Rocket Lab is being added to the Nasdaq-100 Index. This is a landmark moment for the team. We're incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved, and even more excited about what is still to come.

Hate to say it but some times the gimmicky TikTok hack actually works (this tweet brought to you buy putting your thumb fully into the rubber glove before putting the rest on)

Rocket Lab 🀝 Mars From orbiters and landers to rovers and helicopters – our technology has enabled some of the most ambitious Mars missions in history. With Motiv (creators of Perseverance's robotic arm) now part of Rocket Lab, we're one of the few companies capable of delivering complete Mars mission solutions, including launch spacecraft software, and now proven robotics for surface and orbital operations too.

I want to wear this suit so bad
Axiom Space has teamed up again with @Prada to introduce the Liquid Cooling and Ventilation Garment (LCVG), the innermost layer within the #AxEMU spacesuit that is designed to protect astronauts from the elements when they explore the lunar surface for the first time in more than 50 years. The LCVG collaboration draws on Prada's expertise in engineered knitting and innovative design concepts, resulting in a next-generation garment that maintains cooling and ventilation while enhancing comfort during up to eight-hour spacewalks. Collaborating with industry pioneers like Prada allows us to combine our technical expertise with leaders across different sectors, fostering innovation and teamwork to deliver advanced technologies that will return America to the Moon.

One step closer to legalizing overland supersonic flight!!
X-59 goes through the number! Congrats to the @NASA and @LockheedMartin🦨 teams! At @NASAArmstrong , we are rebuilding our X-plane portfolio and getting NASA back in the business of radical airframe and engine flight test!. Today was another small step in the right direction πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Non controversial opinion I am very pro T. Rex sized space telescopes
Celebrate National Dinosaur Day with our dino-sized observatory! πŸ¦–Roman is both roughly as long and as massive as a T. rex. Prior to launch, the team will load it up with about 62 velociraptors worth of fuel (~2,500 pounds). Learn more: go.nasa.gov/4x1onRJ

Zero clue how I’ll pay for it but someday I want to buy an after burning jet and join the air show circuit

Can’t wait to see Roman launch first hardware I ever worked on!!
The last things Roman will "see" on Earth are the faces of some of the countless people who created it. ✨ The observatory’s primary mirror has passed its last inspection as it nears its final days @NASAGoddard before heading down to @NASAKennedy. go.nasa.gov/4uB91BF

Nine years ago today, we launched Electron for the first time. Later this year, Electron is expected to reach 100 launches, likely making it the fastest privately developed orbital rocket to hit that milestone. From β€œIt’s a test” to one of the world’s highest cadence launch vehicles in under a decade. Here's a little walk down memory lane from that first historic launch.
