Name Origin
This mission name is a clever pun, playing on the idiom "It's all uphill from here." By substituting "all uphill" with "Argos up," Rocket Lab creatively links the rocket's ascent with the Argos payload mission.
"It Argos Up From Here"
Mission Overview
The “It Argos Up From Here” mission will launch the General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems designed and manufactured satellite GAzelle, carrying Argos-4 Advanced Data Collection System (A-DCS) hosted payload, part of the international Argos program that collects data from thousands of sensors and transmitters located around the world.
