A Rocket Lab Electron booster launched a pair of NASA Time-Resolved Observations of Precipitation structure and storm Intensity with a Constellation of Smallsats (TROPICS) satellites from Mahai, New Zealand.

The first satellites from the constellations were original supposed to fly to space atop Astra's Rocket 3.3 booster but were lost when the launch failed.
