With the Electron launch of 21 January 2018, it became the first private spaceport to host a successful orbital launch.", "map_image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/map_images/location_10_20200803142509.jpg", "timezone_name": "Pacific/Auckland", "total_launch_count": 57, "total_landing_count": 17 }, "country_code": "NZL", "map_image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/map_images/pad_185_20200803143540.jpg", "total_launch_count": 28, "orbital_launch_attempt_count": 28 }, "webcast_live": false, "image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/electron25202_image_20230824194051.jpeg", "infographic": null, "program": [], "orbital_launch_attempt_count": 6334, "location_launch_attempt_count": 32, "pad_launch_attempt_count": 6, "agency_launch_attempt_count": 32, "orbital_launch_attempt_count_year": 152, "location_launch_attempt_count_year": 9, "pad_launch_attempt_count_year": 6, "agency_launch_attempt_count_year": 9, "type": "normal" }, { "id": "fe50e1e8-7829-4031-9812-8782a4859720", "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/launch/fe50e1e8-7829-4031-9812-8782a4859720/?format=api", "slug": "long-march-7a-tjsw-16", "name": "Long March 7A | TJSW-16", "status": { "id": 3, "name": "Launch Successful", "abbrev": "Success", "description": "The launch vehicle successfully inserted its payload(s) into the target orbit(s)." }, "last_updated": "2025-03-29T22:34:05Z", "net": "2025-03-29T16:05:00Z", "window_end": "2025-03-29T17:15:00Z", "window_start": "2025-03-29T15:57:00Z", "net_precision": { "id": 1, "name": "Minute", "abbrev": "MIN", "description": "The T-0 is accurate to the minute." }, "probability": null, "weather_concerns": null, "holdreason": "", "failreason": "", "hashtag": null, "launch_service_provider": { "id": 88, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/agencies/88/?format=api", "name": "China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation", "type": "Government" }, "rocket": { "id": 8562, "configuration": { "id": 216, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/config/launcher/216/?format=api", "name": "Long March 7A", "family": "Long March", "full_name": "Long March 7A", "variant": "" } }, "mission": { "id": 7153, "name": "TJSW-16", "description": "Chinese classified satellite claimed to be for communication technology test purposes.
