Electron is a two-stage small-lift launch vehicle built and operated by Rocket Lab. The rocket has flown 32 times with 29 successes and 3 failures. The first flight, known as "It's a Test", launched on 25 May 2017. The mission failed due to a glitch in communication equipment on the ground. Successful follow-on missions, including "Still Testing", "It's Business Time" and "This One's For Pickering", delivered multiple small payloads to low Earth orbit. The 13th mission, "Pics Or It Didn't Happen", failed during flight. Rocket Lab subsequently returned to flight, launching the 14th mission two months later. The 20th mission, dubbed "Running Out Of Toes", experienced a failure just right after second stage ignition. Flight 26 was the first Electron flight to attempt a full catch recovery usi
