Firefly Aerospace achieved a groundbreaking feat by successfully launching a satellite for the U.S. Space Force with just 24 hours of notice. The mission, named Victus Nox, demonstrated Firefly’s exceptional ability to rapidly launch national security missions. Within the given timeframe, the company completed all necessary preparations, updated flight software trajectory, and integrated the Millennium Space Systems-built payload onto the Firefly Alpha rocket. This remarkable accomplishment surpasses the previous record set by Northrop Grumman at 21 days, highlighting Firefly’s effectiveness in responsive space launches.
