Ugqatso lwendawo lujika lube lukhuphiswano lokubuyisela amanqanaba ezithuthi. Ngo-Agasti ophelileyo, i-Rocket Lab yajoyina oovulindlela kule ndawo, i-SpaceX kunye neBlue Origin. Umntu oqalayo akayi kuyenza nzima inkqubo yokubuyisela ngaphambi kokufika kwinqanaba lokuqala kwiinjini. Endaweni yoko, izigaba zokuqala zerokhethi ye-Electron zicwangciswe ukuba zicholwe emoyeni ukusuka , okanye uyihlisele elwandle. Kuzo zombini ezi meko kuya kusetyenziswa iparashute.
Malunga nenyanga edlulileyo Namhlanje, i-Rocket Lab, phezu kolwandle oluvulekileyo eNew Zealand, kwanangaphambi kokuqaliswa kokuvalelwa okungqongqo, iphumelele uvavanyo lokuthatha iprototype yenqanaba lokuqala lesithuthi sokuphehlelelwa kwe-Electron kusetyenziswa ihelikopta.
Ngokwesicwangciso, emva kokuhambisa umthwalo kwi-orbit, inqanaba lokuqala le-Electron liya kuphinda lingene kwi-atmosphere kwaye lifake i-parachute yokuqhawula. Oku kuya kwenza ukuba kube lula ukuyibeka elwandle ngokuthambileyo, ukusuka apho iya kuthi emva koko ibanjwe ziinkonzo zenkampani, okanye ukubamba ukuhla kwenqanaba lokuqala ngenqwelomoya enenkqubo yokukhwela ngelixa isemoyeni. Kule meko, ukuqaliswa emanzini kubonakala kuyindlela yokugcina ukuba i-helicopter pick-up ayenzeki ngenxa yesizathu esithile.
Kwinkqubo yokuvavanya i-pickup ephakathi kwe-air prototype ye-Electron isigaba sokuqala, inkampani yasebenzisa ii-helicopter ezimbini. Omnye wawisa imodeli, kwaye okwesibini, emva kokuvula iparashute yeqonga, wathabatha imodeli ngekhonkco eyenzelwe ngokukhethekileyo. Iveni yaqhutywa kumphakamo omalunga nekhilomitha enye enesiqingatha. Kumqhubi wenqwelo-moya onamava, kuyabonakala ukuba, akunzima kangako.
Inqanaba elilandelayo liya kubandakanya ukuvavanya ukuhla okuthambileyo kwenqanaba lokuqala elwandle, ekulindeleke ekuhambeni kwexesha kulo nyaka. Emva kokuba isiteji sisusiwe emanzini, siya kuthunyelwa kwisikhululo sendibano yenkampani eNew Zealand ukuvavanya ubungakanani bomonakalo kunye nokwenzeka kokusetyenziswa kwakhona emva kokuqalisa emanzini.
