[Orionid]

„Viva La StriX” jest nazwą misji, która ma zostać wyniesiona RN Electron z jednym satelitą obserwacyjnym StriX dla firmy Synspective, japońskiego operatora komercyjnej konstelacji satelitów.

Misja ta będzie dziewiątym startem rakiety Electron realizowanym dla firmy Synspective w ramach rozbudowy jej konstelacji satelitów z radarem o syntetycznej aperturze (SAR) nad Japonią, która dostarcza dane na potrzeby planowania rozwoju miast, monitorowania budownictwa i infrastruktury oraz reagowania na katastrofy.

Od 2020 Rocket Lab jest wyłącznym dostawcą usług wynoszenia satelitów dla konstelacji Synspective, a w planach jest jeszcze 18 misji, które mają wynieść pozostałe satelity na orbitę przed 2030.
