What's better than one climate monitoring launch for NASA? Two of course! 🚀🚀

We're gearing up for back-to-back Electron launches from LC-1 to deploy NASA's PREFIRE mission to study heat loss to space in Earth’s polar regions.

Two Electrons will deploy two identical CubeSats…

Quite possibly the most detailed behind the scenes look at our work and team yet.

After launching on Electron just a week ago, NASA's Advanced Composite Solar Sail System is now well on its way to testing next-generation solar sail technology.

Congratulations NASA Ames! We'll be cheering you on every step of the way.

The ✨meatball✨ returns

We've been providing dedicated launch for NASA since 2018, successfully delivering the ELaNa-19 mission, two TROPICS launches, and the CAPSTONE mission to the Moon.

Now we're excited to launch back-to-back NASA PREFIRE missions from LC-1 soon.

Ready, Aim, PREFIRE 🚀 Next up on Electron will be the first of two launches for NASA's PREFIRE mission, a climate change focused mission to measure the heat lost from the Arctic and Antarctica.

Launching NET May 22, 2024.

Manufacturing medicine in space is about as cutting edge as it gets, so we went old school to capture the spacecraft build process on film.

With Varda Space Industries’s first in-space pharmaceutical processing capsule now safely back on Earth, we’re excited to support the next one with…

Big milestone for the Astroscale team. Congrats!

Launched on Electron in February, the ADRAS-J spacecraft is undertaking a world first mission to safety approach, characterize, and rendezvous with a spent Japanese rocket body, paving the way for on-orbit services and active…

Deploying spacecraft to precise orbits (and sometimes bringing them back home to Earth) is a complex feat, but it's all in a day's work for our GNC team.

Roles open now for Guidance, Navigation and Control Engineers. Join the team and help design innovative missions to low…

The bridge between Earth and space

Electron gets all the attention, but every now and then the Kick Stage likes to slip into frame and remind us who delivers our customers' satellites to their precise, final orbits 🫡 👋

Our 47th Electron launch...and counting

A new era begins

Dedicated access to orbit for small satellites. It's what we promised when Rocket Lab was founded and it's what we deliver today.

We do what we say we will 🤝

Welcome to orbit, NEONSAT-1 and NASA's Advanced Composite Solar Sail System 🌎

Mission success for our 47th Electron launch 🚀

Thank you to our mission partners NASA NASAAmes and KAISTPR. We're proud to deliver reliable and dedicated access to space for you!

One down, one to go.

Payload deployment for NASA Ames ACS3 is now just 45 mins away. #BeginningTheSwarm

The swarm is about to begin!

Payload deployment for KAISTPR's NEONSAT-1 is less than 20 mins away, to be followed by NASA Ames' Advanced Composite Solar Sail System ~1 hour later.
