More than 100 spacecraft were safely deployed to precise orbits by Rocket Lab separation systems in 2025, soaring past our previous annual record of 64 separations.

Another year of 100% mission success for these critical systems

Securing access to space for all-weather 24/7 Earth imaging πŸŒπŸ“Έ

QPS Inc has signed for another 3x Electron launches to continue deploying their QPS constellation - their third multi-launch booking on Electron in less than a year.

Responsive launch needs responsive launch sites.

With Launch Complex 1, we built the world's first private orbital launch site giving us launch availability 24/7, 365. Launch Complex 2 was built in just 10 months to bring small launch and hypersonic test launch to the U.S. East Coast, and Launch Complex 3 right next door unlocks medium launch capability with Neutron.

Next up: Alaska, and Rocket Lab Launch Complex 4. New orbits, new azimuths, a new era in responsive space.

Rocket Lab has been awarded a $397M contract by the USSpaceForce to build multiple advanced Flatellite spacecraft for the SB-AMTI program, and launch them on Neutron.

We're proud to enhance global security by deploying a resilient space-based system to detect and track airborne threats in real time.

Introducing GHOST.

We’ve mastered the art of building launch sites. Now we’re making them deployable worldwide.

GHOST = Global Hypersonic & Orbital Spaceport Technology. A containerized, deployable launch site system that enables Electron and HASTE launches anywhere, anytime.

Missile defense. Responsive launch. Sovereign launch capability. Delivered where it's needed most.

Coming soon across two pads in Alaska in 2027.
