Changes In Latitudes, Changes In Attitudes

Electron's 54th mission is 'Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes', a dedicated mission to low Earth orbit for a confidential commercial customer. The mission will launch from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 and will be Rocket Lab's 12^th launch of 2024, increasing the record number of Electron launches achieved annually since orbital launch services began in 2018. The expedited mission will also be Rocket Lab’s fastest turnaround to date: from signed contract to launch date in less than two months. 

Rocket Lab’s rapid call-up launch capability, its standardized and rapid production of Electron launch vehicles that ensures a rocket can be assigned a payload for on-demand launch within days, responsive launch sites, and its experienced team behind the second most frequently launched U.S. orbital rocket, are key enablers for this mission.
