    Firefly has had some good news lately between announcing launch contracts and getting their satellite bus into the SDA HALO fray.

    They were supposed to launch Blue Ghost this year, but I haven’t seen anything about that in a few months and wonder if it isn’t slipping because of environmental test delays.

    The article also mentioned Alpha being the only 1000kg class rocket doing anything, but it still isn’t launching often at all. Hopefully another one flies this year.
