Ground control to Major Trial

Around 130$ million yearly revenue? Matches RocketLab.

I think Rocket Lab is ~$130M quarterly, not annually. Isn't it?

Rocket Lab did ~$123m/quarter in Q1 and ~$400m in 2024 [0], while this article claims, "Around $130 million in annual revenue."

I don't think it's Rocket Lab.

And yeah:

> The company that developed and launched rockets in New Zealand and the United States, as well as spacecraft and software systems, made US$123 million revenue in the three months to the end of March.

Starlink has launched over 4000 satellites.

4000 VMs doesn't imply 4k satellites, does it? Regarding revenues, it may be correct if it is a specific division of SL. Anyways, OneWeb has 130+ millions in annual revenues (and a fleet of 400+ satellites, which would result in 10 VMs per satellite <- fwiw).

I truly loved the way this article is written. To the point, sharp and quite comical. I certainly hope they achieve to clean the mess up.

O3 seems to think this is Swedish Space Corporation.
