#RocketLab #MadeInNewZealand | #StillTesting – flight number two – stage one stack static Rutherford engine testing.

 

Recently late August 2017 , Auckland Based, Made in New Zealand- Rocket Lab, has recently tested for its second attempt test certification launch for its New Zealand Homemade Electron Carbon fibre Rocket with, it’s innovative 3D printed oxygen/ kerosene Rutherford Engines for its primary components in which clustered to same mirroring pioneering propulsion systems like the Soyuz’s daisy Clustered engines which has a component  print time averagely of twenty four hours..

Previous the first test certification flight nicknamed “it’s a Test” was launched in 25th May 2017.. on the east coast of North Island, at Mahia peninsula in which launch complex one, New Zealand made constructed in the same manner like Space X’s Falcon nine’s also the Roscomos Soyuz’s Launcher carrier transfer pad tractor rocket system to launch pad facilities..

As part of the second static testing was to solve any further issues that resulted from the first flight in findings it was a telemetry data loss issue that lead towards the termination of the “it’s a Test’ first certification flight in which was corrected as part of investigation as Rocket Lab testing out the essentials it’s preparing for its second certification testing flight in which is coming soon..

ROCKET LAB – NEW ZEALAND | Launch complex nears construction completion…

During the last recent week of September 2016, a major piece of fifty ton launch complex hardware platform was constructed over the several months in the making of “Rocket-Lab” first static launch complex that was constructed in the  installation New Zealand Mahia Peninsula  in which situated outward looking towards the pacific ocean in between Art Deco Napier and Gisborne.. Making it viable safe for test or actual launching…..

The Rocket Lab static Launch Complex situated in an very unique location in which it gives two options in which it can launch various payload depending of rocket type of design, this case their current flagship the “Electron” Rocket in which can launch at payloads of 150 kilograms into orbital or Geo stationary of 500 Kilometers above Earth,  with its dual rocket stage component systems of first stage having multiple New Zealand home built clustered LOX/RP-Rutherford Engines as for the secondary payload final delivery  stage one mono engine of vacuum engine type…. As the other hulling of the rocket is made of carbon composited

The construction of the Rocket-Lab launch complex is very the same rocket delivery process as the Russian, Sea launch  also of Space X launch complex system where the rocket is deliver horizontally then to vertical positioning for ready for launch in testing in the following months..
