"The Cosmos Will See You Now" is a dedicated launch on Electron for Open Cosmos, a U.K.-based space technology company.

The mission will deploy two satellites into a 1,050 km circular Earth orbit for Open Cosmos, a first-time dedicated launch customer. This higher-altitude deployment showcases Electron's wide payload trajectory range, maintaining its reputation as a versatile and dependable small satellite and spacecraft launch vehicle that meets diverse mission requirements.

The mission will be Rocket Lab's first launch of 2026 and 80th launch overall.
