@linkspace_china: LinkSpace did a very successful test on rocket recycling on March 27, 2019. It will support us to open the next PLAN. Thank you Dr. @robert_zubrin for being here to witness this exciting milestone. Later, NewLine Baby(RLV-T5) will undergo higher flight tests in the future. https://t.co/9aIpLopstW

@spacex: At Naval Air Facility El Centro in Southern California, SpaceX recently completed its 16th test of Crew Dragon's parachute system-verifying the system's ability to slow Crew Dragon and ensure a safe landing in the unlikely event of a low altitude abort. https://t.co/OOQnAtNXJ3 https://t.co/kFX7Qth3AK
If successful this will be Rocket Lab's first commercial launch and second rocket to reach orbit after Still Testing's successful launch in January. It's Business Time will carry a handful of small satellites including the IRVINE01 cubesat built by Irvine, California high school students; two Lemur-2 cubesats for Spire; and the NABEO drag sail demonstrator for end of life satellite deorbiting for Bavaria.
