Rocket Lab offers the world’s only private orbital launch range in Mahia, New Zealand. This FAA compliant site can accommodate a launch rate of 120 flights per year and is licensed for a launch to occur every 72 hours.

The Wallops Island site is for customers who prefer to launch from the US rather than have their PL undergo the rigors involved in shipment to NZ.
