Rocket Lab reports successful launch of 67th Electron rocket

Rocket Lab (RKLB) announced that it successfully launched its 67th Electron rocket on a dedicated launch for radio frequency geospatial analytics provider HawkEye 360. “In less than 48 hours of mission success, Rocket Lab is scheduled for its next Electron launch to take place on Saturday, June 28th NZT – expected to mark the company’s fastest launch turnaround yet from Launch Complex 1,” the company stated. Rocket Lab founder and CEO, Sir Peter Beck, added: “Today’s launch for HawkEye 360 was another seamless ride to orbit for Electron, with four satellites deployed with absolute precision to support the growth of HawkEye 360’s constellation in low Earth orbit. With our next mission set to launch in less than 48 hours – the fastest we’ve ever scheduled back-to-back missions from the same launch site – I’m proud of the team for continuing to deliver the high-cadence, responsive launch that our customers rely on.”
