Rocket Lab Sets Launch Date for 50th Electron Mission, Prepares to Deploy Five Satellites for Kinéis
LONG BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rocket Lab USA, Inc. (Nasdaq: RKLB) ("Rocket Lab" or "the Company"), a global leader in launch services and space systems, today announced the launch window for the Company's 50th Electron launch. The mission will deploy five Internet-of-Things (IoT) satellites for French company Kinéis.

The 'No Time Toulouse' mission is scheduled to launch from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in Mahia, New Zealand during a 14-day launch window that opens on June 19th, 2024, NZST.

The mission is the first of five dedicated Electron launches for Kinéis, a company backed by private and public investors including the French government's space agency CNES (Centre National d'Études Spatiales) and CLS (Collecte Localisation Satellites) an international space-based solutions provider, to improve global IoT connectivity. Kinéis' new constellation will connect any object anywhere in the world and guarantee the transmission of targeted and useful data to users, in near-real time, with low energy consumption with more powerful 30kg-class nanosats that integrate IoT technology. The constellation also includes a second mission: a ship-tracking Automatic Identification System (AIS). Once deployed, these technologies will allow Kinéis to expand across multiple industries and scale from 20,000 devices connected to millions.

Look at those incredible images: the first 5 satellites of our constellation are meticulously encapsulated into the upper stage of the rocket.
Congratulations to the Kinéis and @hemeria1 teams in New Zealand that conducted the final checks during those last miles.

Спутники установлены на Kick Stage.

Teams are on console, Electron is vertical, and the final pre-launch dress rehearsal is underway for the 'No Time Toulouse' mission.
While the rocket and payloads are ready to go to space, the weather might not play ball on our planned lift-off date on June 19th NZT
Stay tuned for updates in the next couple of days once the forecast firms up
