We've just signed Electron's largest commercial launch contract ever: 20x new launches with Earth-observation constellation operator @synspective 🚀🦉
That brings the total number of Synspective launches on Electron to 47 - the most of any Rocket Lab launch customer. We're proud to continue building out their low Earth orbit constellation through to 2031.

Electron has been selected by @nasa for three launches in 2027 to deploy its PolSIR and TSIS-2 Sun and Earth sciences missions.
We've been delivering reliability, precise orbital accuracy, and on-demand launch for NASA missions for almost a decade - and we're ready to deliver that once again for PolSIR and TSIS-2 from Launch Complex 1 early next year.

Tactically responsive space launch 🤝 Commercial satellite with RPO capability
Rocket Lab is the first and only company to deliver both for a Tactically Responsive Space (TacRS) mission by the @USSpaceForce and @USSF_SSC with VICTUS HAZE.
That means we designed and built the spacecraft, launched it on our own rocket, and now we're operating it on orbit. That's end-to-end space capability in action.

Launch so fast we did it without a webcast… just kidding.
Watch our responsive launch for the VICTUS HAZE mission for the @USSpaceForce and @USSF_SSC

100% mission success
Lifting off from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand at 10:19 pm NZT on June 19th, the mission shattered the previous TacRS record set by VICTUS NOX by more than 10 hours. The feat establishes a new global benchmark for rapid call-up space capabilities.
