Rocket Lab has launched the mysterious satellite on Saturday, June 28, 2025, making another milestone, as it is the first ever record of their missions. At 12:38 p.m. IST, the Electron rocket lifted from Launch Complex 1 in Mahia. The mission is known as “Symphony in the Stars,” and carried a single spacecraft above 650 kilometres above the Earth’s orbit. This satellite was deployed for a confidential commercial client, and the details are still not revealed. However, Rocket Lab has made a record by doing so.

Confidential Launch, Yet Revealed

As reported by Rocket Launch, it was the 68th Electron launch of Rocket Lab overall and the tenth mission of 2025. Even after its confidentiality, it was confirmed that it had successfully launched into space. Rocket Lab shared its news on social media regarding Mission Success and confirmed payload deployment. They further wrote, “Music to our ears for “Symphony in the stars.” It was one of the two missions dedicated to the same client, with the second launch to happen later in 2025.

This launch went through 48 hours after the “Get the Haw Outta Here mission.” This set a new record for the company. This different and every achievement highlights the reliability and ability of Electron Rocket Lab to offer responsive and repeatable access to space. It is a significant milestone, especially for the demand for fast satellite deployment continuity to arise.

Rocket Launch’s Occupied Month

It was a busy month for Rocket Launch as it went through the completion of four missions alone. Further, in the queue, after “Symphony in the Stars,” they launched “Full Stream Ahead,” then “The Mountain God Guards,” and “Get The Hawk Outta Here.” Every mission has supported commercial satellite operators, which demonstrates the versatility of Electron in rapid deployment schedules and handling.

Astronomers studying aging Sun-like stars have found strong evidence that stars consume their closest planets as they evolve. Using data from NASA’s TESS mission, researchers observed fewer planets around older stars, suggesting worlds are destroyed over time. The findings offer a realistic preview of Earth’s fate billions of years from now.

New Ionic Liquid Breaks Stability Barrier for Perovskite Solar Cells

Published

on

By

A new ionic liquid additive developed by researchers at Purdue and Emory universities could transform perovskite solar technology. The compound stabilises crystal growth and buried interfaces, dramatically slowing heat- and light-driven degradation. Solar cells treated with the additive retained about 90% of their efficiency after 1,500 hours at 90°C, outperforming p…
