A Rocket Lab Electron rocket will launch a small communications satellite for OHB Group of Germany. The satellite “will enable specific frequencies to support future services from orbit,” according to Rocket Lab, which has nicknamed the mission “Another One Leaves the Crust.” Launch time from New Zealand will be near sunset there, or 2:38 - 2:45 am Eastern Saturday.

I'll watch a replay. Their webcast will be HERE

Postponed due to an odd reading from a non-flight sensor. New target date TBD. They have a 10-day window to launch.

On a side note while the delay rattles on anyone hear what's herface PM of NZ saying they were going to hold people in a facility until they agreed to be tested?
Don't know if it was visitors or returning kiwis...

Back to the delay count.
