Rocket Lab announced its first customer for its coming Neutron vehicle. The space infrastructure company reported third-quarter revenue increased to $104.8 million, up 55% from $67.6 million for the same period a year ago.

If all continues to go well with its development, a new rocket should open up new customer segments for the company.

And let's not forget the Space Systems division, delivering spacecraft for NASA's ESCAPADE mission to Mars and in-space manufacturing projects with Varda Space Industries. Rocket Lab isn't just flying rocketsit's building a diversified space empire.
