Concluding a rare week that was void of any launches and riddled with scrubs, the spaceflight industry looks to return to the planned course of action with four launches from all over the world. This week, the 50th launch of Electron has taken flight, and SpaceX and CASC continue to dominate the launch calendar.
SpaceX begins the week picking up the slack with three Falcon 9 missions that launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, and Vandenberg, California. Later in the week, Rocket Lab launched the No Time Toulouse mission flying on Electron out of New Zealand. A day later, China flew its workhorse rocket, the Chang Zheng 2C, to launch a joint Chinese and French telescope.
