New Zealand and U.S.-based Rocket Lab will perform its first fully operational reusable spaceflight for its upcoming mission called "There and Back Again".

It also performed a dress rehearsal for the helicopter capture maneuver with itsin November 2020. All of those missions helped Rocket Lab collect data for its upcoming retrieval attempt of Electron later this month.
"Now it's time to put it all together for the first time and pluck Electron from the skies," he added."Trying to catch a rocket as it falls back to Earth is no easy feat, we’re absolutely threading the needle here, but pushing the limits with such complex operations is in our DNA."
