Rocket Lab has scrubbed today’s launch, which would have been its second commercial lift-off.
The company posted shortly before the targeted 12:36 p.m. launch time, “The team has identified a video transmitter 13dB down with low performance. It’s not an issue for flight, but we want to understand why, so we’re waiving off for the day. We’ll assess and advise a new target lift-off time soon.”
