Watch Rocket Lab launch their first commercial payload!!!

A US based (but also half New Zealand based) rocket company, Rocket Lab, will be launching their beautiful Electron rocket from their gorgeous launch site, LC-1 on the Mahia Peninsula in New Zealand. This is their first time launching paying customer’s payloads and they’re launching a handful of small sats.

They’ll be heading to a nearly Polar orbit of 85 degrees. The Electron will put them in a 500 km x 250 km orbit and then use it’s kick stage powered by a small curie engine to put them into a 500 km x 500 km orbit.
