A sounding rocket carrying student experiments for the RockOn! mission successfully launched from Wallops Aug. 17 at 6 a.m. EDT. These missions provide students with real-world, hands-on opportunities building and launching an experiment. go.nasa.gov/45xzhQx
LIFTOFF! 🚀 The @northropgrumman Antares rocket launched at 8:31 p.m. ET, carrying the Cygnus spacecraft loaded with science and supplies to the @Space_Station. In just a few hours, we will get confirmation that the solar arrays have deployed on the spacecraft.
24-Hour Weather Forecast ⛅ The Wallops Range weather office continues to keep weather at 80% favorable, with a slight chance of cumulus clouds being the main concerns for Tuesday's Antares launch window. Catch the weather report: blogs.nasa.gov/ng-crs-19/2023…
Mission success for the launch of our new suborbital launch vehicle! HASTE took to the skies from Rocket Lab LC-2 in Virginia for a suborbital mission at 21:24pm Eastern. Congratulations to our mission partners, and welcome to a new era of hypersonic test launch capability!
This evening, Wallops supported the launch of @RocketLab's first ever Hypersonic Accelerator Suborbital Test Electron (HASTE) launch vehicle at 9:24 p.m. EDT. Wallops supports these commercial missions with our range, safety & emergency teams. nasa.gov/feature/wallop…

Holding at t-5mins
We have an electron on LC-2 ahead of todays launch attempt. TFR goes into effect at 8:45pm and runs till 12:30! Difficult to tell if the first stage has Electron or HASTE on it due to the haze.
The Wallops Range is scheduled to support a Rocket Lab launch between June 15-20 in the evening. There is no live stream planned for launch and the Wallops Visitor Center will not be open for launch.
LAUNCH SCRUB: Today’s launch of the Terrier-Improved Malemute sounding rocket carrying the SubTEC-9 technology demonstration has been scrubbed due to issues with payload instrumentation. The next launch opportunity is Tuesday, April 25, with a 7:15-8:15pm ET launch window.
Once the super pressure balloon lifts off, it can be tracked in real-time here: csbf.nasa.gov/map/balloon10/…
Our first launch opportunity for NASA’s super pressure balloon carrying the SuperBIT payload is scheduled for Sunday, April 16, between 8 and 11:30 a.m. NZST (between 4 and 7:30 p.m. EDT Saturday, April 15, for the United States). Learn more: go.nasa.gov/3UzvbTT
We're preparing for the two rockets REXUS 29 and 30 to be launched from Esrange in the coming days, part of the European student program @REXUSBEXUS. Tomorrow, a first launch attempt will be made 🚀 Mission info: bit.ly/3Zohhom @DLR_en @RymdstyrelsenSE @ZARM_de @esa
Mission success for @capellaspace with our second launch from Launch Complex 2, Virginia! We've now launched 34 Electron missions total, deploying 157 satellites to space. 📸: @TheFavoritist
Our apologies for the lack of coverage for Rocket Lab's Stronger Together launch. We were both busy and unable to provide coverage. 'Till next launch - @bobrossplush
Our weather office is reporting a 70-80% chance of favorable conditions for Rocket Lab's planned Electron launch attempt from Wallops for March 15. The main concern for the launch window is strong surface winds. Stay tuned for updates.
To avoid high winds at the pad, we’re now targeting no earlier than Thurs March 16th for our next launch attempt from LC-2 for @capellaspace. Stronger Together: Mar 16, EDT | 6pm Mar 16, UTC | 10pm Mar 16, PT | 3pm Mar 17, NZDT | 11am
We are standing down from today's launch attempt at @NASA_Wallops due to strong upper level winds. We have back up opportunities over the next week and we'll share a new target launch date soon.
Tonight's window for @RocketLab's Electron launch from Wallops opens at 6 p.m. ET. Weather continues to be 70% favorable. Unfortunately it's a bit cloudy out there right now, but if things clear up, those along the East Coast may catch a glimpse of Electron's flight.
All 3 pads are busy with 2 rockets at LC-2 in Virginia and 1 on the way to LC-1 in New Zealand this week. The teams are racing to see which hemisphere can launch first.
