ICE AIS BABY, Mission III, Success !
5 new satellites have successfully joined our constellation, thanks to another flawless launch with @RocketLab! This brings us closer to completing our full constellation of 25 nanosatellites dedicated to revolutionizing Global IoT Connectivity and maritime tracking.
Along our Global IoT Connectivity, Kinéis' Satellite AIS (S-AIS) technology, we're delivering high-performance connectivity that provides the most reliable S-AIS data 24/7.
This mission strengthens our commitment to enhancing maritime safety and surveillance by enabling companies to:

- Protect and prevent ships from incidents like collisions and groundings
- Monitor traffic within exclusive economic zones (EEZs)
- Detect suspicious activities to ensure security

2024-219F - Kick Stage, понизивший орбиту?

В названии темы заменён порядковый номер миссии с "fl 55" на "fl 56", так как сама Rocket Lab считает 55-ым состоявшийся менее суток ранее запуск Электрона с суборбитальной миссией.
