AI summary

What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting

NASA awarded Rocket Lab launch contracts for PolSIR and TSIS-2, expanding RKLB's NASA backlog and near-term revenue potential. The two missions target high-altitude ice clouds and solar irradiance, with launches set for 2027. This underpins a stronger long-term backlog and potential upside into LOXSAT and other NASA missions.

  • NASA selects Rocket Lab for PolSIR and TSIS-2 missions. Launches no earlier than 2027.
  • PolSIR to launch on two Electron rockets. No earlier than June 2027.
  • TSIS-2 will measure Sun's energy input. Launch early 2027.
  • RKLB shares rise 5.59% after hours. Price $85.20.
