Rocket Lab postpones launch because of pandemic

Rocket Lab is delaying its next launch because of the coronavirus pandemic. The company said Tuesday its next Electron launch from New Zealand, which had been scheduled for March 30, was postponed after the New Zealand government issued new orders closing all nonessential businesses. That mission, called "Don't Stop Me Now" by the company, was to launch three NRO payloads and two university cubesats.
