Has some cool new technology - like NO fairings (wow mind blown (facetiously - like why have we not done this before? I know it needs to be uber reliable...)), Full Reuse - save upper stage, lands at launch site...

Fancy presentation too! Good luck Rocket Lab!

I hope all this turns into a commercial space race. Orbital habitats, Moon bases, Moon mining. A Mars Clipper. To bad it's about 40 years to late for me.

Throw away fairings are light and when the whole rocket was one and done leaving them attached didn't make sense from cost or weight point of view. It'll be cool if it works.
