About the Capella Space Launch
Mission Name: Stronger Together
Payload: Two SAR satellites
Launch Site: Launch Complex 2, Wallops Island, Virginia, USA
Rocket Lab will deliver to orbit two SAR satellites for San Francisco-based Capella Space. Capella provides the best quality, high-resolution SAR imagery to customers globally for a wide range of government and commercial applications. The "Stronger Together" mission carrying Capella Space's two 100-kg class satellites will expand Capella's existing SAR constellation, increasing imaging capacity to meet growing customer demand.
Спойлер
Capella Space delivers the highest-quality, highest-resolution SAR imagery commercially available with the fastest order-to-delivery time, empowering organizations across the public and private sector to make informed, accurate decisions. Its satellite imaging technology can penetrate all weather conditions and capture clear imagery 24-7, day and night, delivering accurate and timely data about what is happening across the Earth at any given moment. With this latest launch into low Earth orbit, Capella Space will expand its market-leading SAR satellite constellation in response to increased customer demand for SAR data.
Rocket Lab has delivered a Capella satellite to space previously on the "I Can't Believe It's Not Optical" mission in August 2020. Supporting Rocket Lab's vertical integration strategy, Rocket Lab will also supply Capella Space with two of the Company's own Motorized Lightbands; separation systems designed to separate the Capella satellites from Electron once in orbit...

The only thing better about than one launch this month? How about two, from opposite sides of the world, within only days of each other, for @capellaspace and @SpaceflightInc @BlackSky_Inc? Our favorite type of March Madness!

Launch Site: Launch Complex 2

MISSION OVERVIEW
The "Stronger Together" mission will be Rocket Lab's second Electron mission from its dedicated launch pad at Rocket Lab Launch Complex 2 (LC-2) on Wallops Island, Virginia.

The launch is a dedicated mission for Capella Space, a leading U.S. satellite manufacturer and Earth observation company. "Stronger Together" will deliver to orbit two more Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites that enable Capella Space to deliver the highest quality, highest resolution SAR imagery commercially available with the fastest order-to delivery time, empowering organizations across the public and private sector to make informed, accurate decisions.

"Stronger Together" will be Capella Space's second launch with Rocket Lab on Electron and its first from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 2 in Virginia. Supporting Rocket Lab's vertical integration strategy, Rocket Lab will also supply Capella Space with two of Rocket Lab's own Motorized Lightbands; separation systems designed to separate the Capella satellites from Electron once in orbit.

Rocket Lab will not attempt to recover Electron for this mission.
