Problems with a downrange tracking station kept Rocket Lab’s Electron launcher on the ground in New Zealand Friday, U.S. time, and the company ordered a two-day delay to resolve the issues and wait for improved weather. Rocket Lab pushed back the launch again to Tuesday because of unfavorable weather.

Liftoff from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station occurred at 9:30 p.m. EDT (0130 UTC).
