- spike021 9y agoNot sure how that launch is relevant, here.
- Taniwha 9y agoThey don't need a govt funded/owned/run launch space to launch, they built their own

- muthdra 9y agoTheir government doesn't have a launch pad.
- vpribish 9y agoto try circling this back to relevancy: NZ is a fantastically business-friendly country where the shenanigans we (US) have to put up with just don't seem to occur (I had a business there for a while, so this isn't just their tourist propaganda talking). also - I swear I heard a sheep on the launch video for electron.
