Rocket Lab (RKLB.US) successfully concluded its launch missions in 2025: with a total of 21 successful launches throughout the year, achieving a 100% success rate.

US commercial space company Rocket Lab (RKLB.US) announced last Sunday that its "Electron" launch rocket successfully completed its 21st launch mission of the year, sending the latest satellite for its frequent collaborator - the Japanese Earth imaging company Institute for Q-shu Pioneers of Space (iQPS) - into its designated orbit. Boosted by this positive news, Rocket Lab's stock price rose by about 4% in pre-market trading on Monday. The company stated that the satellite launched this time will join iQPS's synthetic aperture radar constellation, providing near real-time imaging services to its global customers through twelve different orbits. Since first conducting launch missions for iQPS in 2023, Rocket Lab has deployed a total of 7 satellites for the constellation, making the "Electron" rocket the main launch vehicle for iQPS. According to the plan, at least 5 more "Electron" rocket launch missions for iQPS are scheduled to be carried out starting from 2026. The next launch window for an "Electron" rocket is expected to be in the first quarter of 2026.
