Future Plans for the Vulcan Centaur Rocket
The launch is a part of ULA’s efforts to safe the rocket for future nationwide safety missions, with plans for extra flights earlier than the yr ends. If the Cert-2 flight goes as deliberate, ULA’s Vulcan Centaur might turn into a workhorse for missions in 2025, with 10 launches already scheduled alongside Atlas V missions.
