Rocket Lab's August 10 investor update paired record Q2 revenue of $234M (up 62% YoY) and a record $2.36B backlog with the June agreement to acquire Iridium for $54/share — roughly $8B in enterprise value, expected to close mid-2027. Shares still fell as Q3 margin guidance reflected peak Neutron first-flight spending; the rocket remains on track for pad delivery in Q4 2026.
SpaceX successfully launched and recovered a Starship booster within 48 hours of its previous flight, marking the fastest turnaround for the Super Heavy vehicle. At the time, the company said it aimed for weekly cadence by Q3 2026. (Update, August 2026: weekly Starship cadence has not yet been reached — the program's next milestone is a first orbital Starlink V3 deployment attempt in late August.)
NASA announced the four-person Artemis II crew had completed their final integrated training exercise, including a full mission simulation. (Update: Artemis II launched from Kennedy Space Center on April 1, 2026 and splashed down April 10 after a successful nine-day lunar flyby — the first crewed flight beyond low Earth orbit since Apollo. SpaceNexus's live mission coverage is archived.)
Amazon successfully deployed the first batch of 60 production Kuiper satellites aboard a ULA Atlas V, beginning the build-out of its 3,236-satellite broadband constellation. Service is expected to begin in late 2026.
