In May 2017, Rocket Lab launched its first rocket into space.

Over the last seven years, the company has grown to become a powerhouse in the global aerospace industry, and has driven the growth of New Zealand’s space sector.

The company’s astronomical success has seen founder Peter Beck receive a knighthood in the recent King’s Birthday Honours.

Ahead of the company’s 50th launch, Beck joins The Front Page to discuss how far he plans the company to soar – and why the sky isn’t the limit for New Zealand.
