The next Electron launch, There and Back Again, has been pushed back to April 27th due to weather. This will be their first attempt at a mid-air recovery (no Frankie, recovery). I know the Neutron is expected to replace the Electron, but I'm expecting this will still give Rocket Lab a lot of important reusability data.

Missed it due to a work call, but looks like all went well. Good to see all four chutes cooperating this time...

I'm not staying up for it, but if anyone's a night owl, the Crew-4 launch is coming up in 4 hours or so. Webcast is live.
