Rocket Lab is about to provide a media update on the initial results/data of the successful recovery of the #Electron first stage on the #ReturnToSender mission.

Peter Beck notes it's still early days. Stage back less than 48 hours. Really just starting to dissect everything. TEST COMPLETE SUCCESS... even more than we set out to do on this mission. This proved it is feasible and Electron CAN BE MADE REUSABLE! 2/x
Beck: Stage oriented itself and controlled heating very well. Recovery systems and pilot chutes deployed at Mach 2. Drogues slowed it down, and then mains "deployed lovely." Impacted ocean at 9 m/s, 1 m/s slower than expected. 3/x
