Rocket Lab's Electron lifted off Tuesday from Wallops Island in Virginia in the company's first launch from U.S. soil.
Rocket Lab's launch vehicle successfully delivered three radio commercial satellites into orbit around the earth, 24 hours after its original scheduled launch was aborted due to bad weather.
Rocket Lab will be conducting its first launch from the Northern Hemisphere today, in a mission that will take off from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility.
Rocket Lab's first Electron launch from the United States was delayed until the first quarter of next year.
