Return to flight followed by a trip to Venus
There is currently no indication that Rocket Lab will be involved in any follow-up missions. However, the 2025 trip is all about hunting for signs of life in the clouds of Venus by detecting organic chemistry.
With luck, the five-minute data collection lifespan of the probe will be enough to meet the scientific objectives – a search for organic material and anomalous cloud components, including aspherical particles.:"Very little data is collected as we have limited bandwidth for our direct communication to Earth. We aim to detect fluorescence and are spending only 5 minutes taking data in the cloud layers.
As well as being challenging, the Venus trip also represents a first, being a private interplanetary undertaking – albeit with a public-private partnership at its core. Beck told us in 2020 that he intended to iterate the payload as results came in, launching a multitude of lighter, cheaper spacecraft rather than the hefty billion-dollar beasts often favored by national space agencies.
