They don't even compete in the same market , dude.

@snuffeldjuret Smallsat is at best a secondary business for Space X whereas it is the primary (and currently only) business model for rocket labs.

@snuffeldjuret The only one coming with attitude here is you. I'm just clarifying that Space X doesn't care enough about the smallsat to actually compete in it. None of Space X's current rocket and future system can compete with Rocket Labs on the cost/launch basis . Saying "SpaceX is coming for RocketLab's lunch." is as accurate as saying an elephant is coming for an elephant shrew 's lunch".

@snuffeldjuret Again you are the only one who is is bringing attitude into the conversation. You seem to be quite ignorant on the matter so let me explain to you why your notion is false : Space X doesn't even attempt to woo the smallsat market . As I said, none of their launch platform s (not Falcon 9 /Heavy, not the BFR) can compete in terms of cost/lauch when t compared to Rocket Labs. The only reason why Space X are even in the small market is because small sat manufactures doesn't have any choice in the matter and there is no reason for Space X to shoo away paying customers.. The moment Rocket Labs (or any upcoming competitors) manage to sort their launch to match Space X's frequency , then Space X can kiss their smallsat market goodbye (in this case rocket Lab will be the one eating Space X's lunch). Not that Space X even care about this as most of their money came from launching medium and large payload , a capability that Rocket Labs doesn't have (nor will have in the near /medium term) . In short Space X doesn't compete nor does it even attempt to compete with Rocket Labs so there is little or no chance of it stealing Rocket Labs's share. On the other hand Rocket Labs is competing with Sapce X is poised to snatch the smallsat market away from it. Now explain to me your reasoning as to why you think Space X is competing with Rocket labs and will take market share away from them?
