The company said it received a notice to launch and lifted off the mission 16 hours and 42 minutes later from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand, beating the previous TacRS record set by Victus Nox by more than 10 hours.

Rocket Lab also said it fully activated and commissioned the Pioneer spacecraft for orbital operations in 37 hours and 36 minutes, coming in well ahead of the mission's 72-hour requirement.
