Electron's 77th mission, 'Bridging The Swarm', is scheduled to launch from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand during a launch window that opens on December 11 UTC.
'Bridging The Swarm' is a dedicated launch for the Satellite Technology Research Center (SaTReC) at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), Korea's leading university dedicated to science and technology. The mission will deploy NEONSAT-1A, an advanced Earth observation satellite equipped with a high-resolution optical camera. 
Designed to capture near-real time natural disaster monitoring for the Korean peninsula, KAIST's NEONSAT constellation is a collaboration across multiple Korean academic, industry, and research institutions, including SaTReC, which is leading the program's system design and engineering. The NEONSAT program is funded by the Korean government's Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT).

We're standing down from today's launch attempt to assess sensor data, but we have plenty of back up opportunities in the coming days. New target launch date for @kaistpr to be posted shortly

NeonSat-1A
The NeonSat-1A, carrying a high-resolution optical camera, is designed to test the constellation capabilities of the South Korean government's Earth observation micro-satellite constellation NeonSat (New-space Earth Observation Satellite), in particular technology improvements identified from operations of NeonSat-1 after its launch in April 2024. These technologies will in turn be incorporated into the next 10 NeonSat under construction, as well as providing more site re-visiting capabilities along with NeonSat-1.
The NeonSat constellation is the first satellite system developed by the government using a mass-production approach for precise monitoring of the Korean Peninsula, lead by the Satellite Technology Research Center (SaTReC) at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), Korea's leading university dedicated to science and technology. Designed to capture near-real time natural disaster monitoring for the Korean peninsula, KAIST's NEONSAT constellation is a collaboration across multiple Korean academic, industry, and research institutions, including SaTReC, which is leading the program's system design and engineering.
The NEONSAT program is funded by the Korean government's Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT).

We're standing down from today's launch attempt after an abort on ignition. As usual, we have back up opportunities in the coming days though so we'll be back with a new T-0 date shortly.

Safely aborting a launch after engine ignition is an advanced capability - not all rockets can do this. During today's count one of Electron's thousands of sensors noticed out-of-family data and called time on lift-off, exactly as it was designed to do. Team is working the straightforward fix now and will select a new launch date shortly.
