Go Vector! xitter.cf/jamesncantrell/status/…
There's a revolution happening out there and even the @usairforce is catching the fever. Glad to see Vandenberg AFB welcoming to new launchers like @vectorspacesys. All I can say is ... if they will have us, we'll be there ! noozhawk.com/article/commerc…

Our @vectorspacesys Vector-R Block 1 development vehicle being assembled in our Orange County CA engineering facility today. Making clear progress to orbit.

We are excited to have completed our first orbital launch application to the @FAANews. This represents a key milestone in our strategic goal to operate out of multiple launch facilities within both the US and internationally.

Immigration .... Should we restrict it to stop new blood from coming in or should we reform it to make it easy for talent to flow here legally ? In 2001, I was contacted by an immigrant who had big dreams. The rest is history. @elonmusk anyone ? I rest my case. @vectorspacesys – at Florida, USA
