Firefly Rockets to Launch High-Speed Space Force Mission.
Firefly Aerospace and Millennium Space Systems are set to launch the Space Force's Victus Nox mission, an experimental test run of national security capabilities in space. The mission calls for flying a Millennium Space Systems-built satellite on Firefly Aerospace's Alpha rocket on short notice. The Tactically Responsive Space program within Space Safari aims to work with spacecraft and rocket builders to create "the capability to quickly respond to on-orbit needs" on "very short timelines." The mission is a "space domain awareness mission," intended to track other objects in orbit and predict possible space threats.
