When smallsat constellation operators want reliability and precision, they launch on Electron.
We're deploying @synspective's Earth-observation constellation to monitor for natural disasters and critical infrastructure projects across 27 launches in total. 
Next launch? Next week, NET March 20.

Launch Safety (https://rocketlabcorp.com/launch/launch-safety/)
"Eight Days A Week" is a dedicated Electron launch with a single StriX Earth observation satellite for Synspective, a Japan-based commercial constellation operator.
The mission will be the eighth Synspective launch on Electron to build out the company's synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging constellation over Japan that provides data for urban development planning, construction and infrastructure monitoring, and disaster response.
Rocket Lab has been the sole launch provider for Synspective's constellation since 2020, with another 19 missions booked to deliver the rest of their constellation to orbit before 2030.

This is what regular and reliable access to space looks like.
We're running two launch campaigns from LC-1 this weekend with back-to-back launches only days apart.
First up: "Eight Days A Week" for @synspective will add another StriX satellite to their Earth observation constellation. Launch: NET March 20 NZDT.
Next: "The Daughter Of The Stars" for @esa will be the first launch for a new European satnav system called LEO-PNT. Launch: NET March 24 NZDT.
