Rocket Lab Launches Next-Gen Software Platforms For Space Missions
Mar 13, 2025 4:22 AM

On Wednesday, space company Rocket Lab USA, Inc. ( RKLB ) launched two software solutions to enhance the efficiency of space mission operations.

The platforms, called InterMission and MAX Constellation, were presented at the SATELLITE conference held in Washington, D.C.

Designed to improve autonomy, security, and scalability, these platforms aim to address the challenges of complex space missions and satellite constellations.

Backed by more than 250 cumulative years of flight experience, Rocket Lab’s space software guarantees smooth mission execution, spanning from launch through spacecraft commissioning to data management.

Their software has been used in numerous commercial and government initiatives, such as NASA’s CAPSTONE mission and Firefly Aerospace’s Blue Ghost series.

“InterMission and MAX Constellation strengthen Rocket Lab’s industry-leading space software suite, giving our customers the tools to optimize performance, reduce risk, and maximize mission success,” said Brad Clevenger, Vice President, Rocket Lab Space Systems.

InterMission is designed as a ground data and space operations platform specifically built for demanding space missions. It can be scaled for larger constellations and enables users to monitor spacecraft in real-time, recording telemetry and customizing data transformations.

InterMission’s secure architecture integrates encryption, user authentication, and role-based access control, ensuring that mission-critical data is safeguarded throughout the mission lifecycle.

A key feature of MAX Constellation is the ODySSy digital twin platform, which simulates spacecraft components, dynamics, and environments with high fidelity, helping engineers test and refine systems in virtual environments before actual mission deployment.

The platforms are also offered alongside the Beyond Gravity Constellation On-Board Computer (cOBC), which combines avionics, flight software, and ground operations into a unified, ready-to-use solution.

Price Action: RKLB shares traded higher by 0.27% at $18.48 in premarket at last check Thursday.
