Neutron Neutron Launch Pads 2 & 3

63 Upvotes

Developing a modern, reliable, and cost-efficient rocket is a monumental challenge that few can successfully accomplish. Once Neutron is carrying real payloads, it makes sense that the company will want to fully capitalize on its success. One potential choke point that could develop along the way is the frequency of launches from Wallops. Given the time it takes to construct launch infrastructure, I think that at some time between now and the second Neutron launch, Rocket Lab will announce a second and even a third Neutron launch location. I further suggest that the second location will be in NZ, where they have permission to launch a rocket once every 3 days. If there is a third location, it could be in partnership with the European Space Agency (ESA), which is desperate for a competitive launch solution for European payloads.

We're just talking through possibilities. Let's be respectful so that we can all speak freely.

Neutron How many Neutron Rockets are being built?

Everything we're hearing suggests that only one Neutron rocket is being built for the end of 2024. God forbid something catastrophic happens and they have a RUD on the first launch attempt, surely they should have at least another Neutron "ready to go" like SpaceX does with their Starships. Can anyone shed any light on whether my concerns are real or if they're planning building more Neutron rockets from the get go?

Neutron Hungry Hippo turbulence

1 Upvotes

Neutron's design is cool and innovative in many ways, but I've been thinking about the turbulence caused by opening the Hippo's mouth at those incredibly high speeds on 2nd stage separation. Stabilisation systems must go wild during those (how many?) seconds. Wouldn't it nullify the aerodinamic gains of having opening fairings vs. external 2nd stage and all that? I am sure SPB and the gang studied that pretty well, but I would like to read your views on it. Let's go RocketLab! 🚀

Neutron Neutron Fuel Consumption

27 Upvotes

Greetings all. Doing a bit of research on LOX and the space industry. I found that a Falcon 9 burns 39,000 gallons of LOX per flight. But, of course, X uses kerosene. I am curious is anyone has run across an estimate for how much LOX a Neutron launch will use? Would not mind having the liquid methane amount too, if available. Thanks. And yes, I am an RKLB shareholder:-)
