I had the pleasure of sitting and chatting with Peter Beck from Rocket Lab last week on their new launch pad, MARS-OC in Wallops Virginia. I love talking with Peter and I think this conversation will bring a smile to your face!

Honestly, this is so good!! Just 2 guys, sitting down having a chat. Congrats Tim - I am sure that Peter Beck does not sit down with just "anyone" and shoot the sh*t. Brilliant

Right at the beginning we can see Peter is comfortable with Tim; when Tim explained about "why don't we just" there was a special smile of appreciation of the concept from Peter. The special Tim Dodd touch on getting an exceptional interview with the top top guys.

Great interview, Tim. Not many journalists come with the in-depth background knowledge and sharp technical questions as you. I'm sure Peter Beck enjoyed it as much as you did.

Any chance of a follow up question? RL builds the rockets in NZ and engines in California. For US launches will they mate them in NZ, California, or Wallops?

Hi Tim, I love what you do. For the new year, I have up my monthly contribution. It not a lot but, I believe with all the dimes sent to you, you can and have been doing a super job. A note on today launch, we sometimes forget that success is build on tries and failures of the past. We cannot try something once and get it right all the time. We fail and learn. Some folks think that when we fail, then we need to quit, but thank God that is not the thought for most in this program. Most of us understand that many tries will need to happen before we get the answer. So as you said, lets remember this and keep the faith and encourage our NASA, Space X Boeing folks to keep at it and we will get American rockets carrying American Astronauts back into play. Then onto the Moon, and Mars! PS spend my money well!

I think in the long-term SpaceX will end up largely influencing the creation of a (sustainable) "methane-economy". Given the benefits of methane for Mars exploration (in situ resource utilization / propelant fabrication on Mars), and the same fuel being used on Earth for SpaceX's cross-continental hops, I believe that we will see the rise of a global (as well as Martian) infrastructure of methane manufacturing capabilities to supply that demand. I think that the rocket companies that follow the trend will be able to exploit that while other systems (that use other kinds of fuels) will likely struggle with building up their own fuel supply infrastructure.
