Rocket Lab – RKLB

On Saturday, Rocket Lab Corp. (NASDAQ:RKLB) successfully completed its 70th Electron launch, named "Live, Laugh, Launch," less than three weeks after Electron’s previous mission. The mission deployed five satellites to a 655km circular Earth orbit for a confidential commercial customer. 

Rocket Lab stock was up nearly 7% last Friday as markets rallied following surprisingly dovish remarks from Fed Chair Jerome Powell.

Starlink – SpaceX 

Starlink, the satellite internet provider run by Elon Musk‘s SpaceX, experienced a brief service outage last Monday, marking its second such outage in two weeks. 

The previous outage, which occurred on July 24 and lasted several hours, was attributed by Starlink Engineering Vice President Michael Nicolls to a critical failure in the internal software systems that manage the network.

That incident occurred shortly after the launch of T-Mobile's Starlink-powered direct-to-cell service, which is designed to keep mobile customers connected in areas without traditional cell towers.

Just hours before last Monday’s outage, SpaceX had successfully launched another batch of Starlink satellites from California’s Vandenberg Space Force Base.
