Kiwi aerospace company Rocket lab has again reached for the stars, sending 34 more satellites into orbit today, to a total of 146 missions.  And in a world first – it also caught a falling rocket almost 2000 metres up in the air, using a helicopter.  Spokesperson Morgan Bailey told Heather du Plessis Allan that's no small feat. “Catching things from the sky that have reached temperatures of 2,500 degrees and are travelling at 8000 kilometres an hour, it’s a supersonic ballet.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
