Pada Desember 2016, Electron menyelesaikan kualifikasi penerbangan. Peluncuran pertama Electron dilakukan pada 25 Mei 2017, namun roket gagal mencapai orbit karena kegagalan pada peralatan komunikasi di darat. Pada 21 Januari 2018, Electron meluncur untuk kedua kalinya dan berhasil mencapai orbit. Peluncuran tersebut meluncurkan tiga CubeSat menuju orbit.<ref name="nzh20180121">{{Cite news|url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&objectid=11979201|title=Blast off!

== Desain ==
Electron menggunakan dua tahap roket yang menggunakan propelan [[RP-1]]/[[Oksigen cair|LOX]] dengan diameter yang sama (1,2 meter). Bagian utama roket dibuat menggunakan material [[Plastik diperkuat-grafit|komposit karbon]] ringan.<ref name="ft_launch">{{Cite news|url=https://www.ft.com/content/41572f8a-fe4d-11e7-9650-9c0ad2d7c5b5|title=Private group in 'world first' cheap rocket launch|work=[[Financial Times]]|last=Smyth|first=Jamie|date=21 January 2018|access-date=22 January 2018}}</ref>

Rocket Lab juga telah mengembangkan tahap ketiga opsional yang dirancang untuk menyempurnakan orbit dari muatan satelitnya. Tahap ketiga ini juga menempatkan satelit ke orbit yang lebih akurat dalam waktu yang lebih singkat. Tahapan roket yang juga disebut sebagai tahapan "kick" ini menggunakan mesin bernama Curie yang dicetak 3D dan mampu melakukan beberapa manuver pembakaran menggunakan [[ Monopropellant |monopropellant]] yang tidak diketahui oleh publik. Tahap ketiga ini pertama kali digunakan dalam penerbangan kedua Electron.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://spacenews.com/rocket-lab-launch-also-tested-new-kick-stage/|title=Rocket Lab launch also tested new kick stage|work=[[SpaceNews]]|first=Jeff|last=Foust|date=23 January 2018|access-date=23 January 2018}}</ref> Tahap "kick" dapat menngangkutmengangkut muatan yang memiliki massa hingga {{Convert|150|kg|lb|abbr=on}}.<ref name=":11massaelektron">{{Cite web|url=https://www.rocketlabusa.com/news/updates/rocket-lab-successfully-circularizes-orbit-with-new-electron-kick-stage/|title=Rocket Lab successfully circularizes orbit with new Electron kick stage|lastwebsite=Rocket Lab|datelanguage=23 January 2018en|access-date=9 May 20192020-06-22}}</ref>

=== Produksi ===
Pembuatan komponen komposit karbon untuk struktur utama membutuhkan waktu 400 jam apabila dilakukan dengan cara konvensional. Pada akhir 2019, Rocket Lab mengadopsi proses produksi baru menggunakan robot untuk menghasilkan semua bagian komposit Electron hanya dalam 12 jam. Robot itu dinamai "Rosie 'the Robot", terinspirasi oleh karakter dalam serial animasi komedi [[The Jetsons]]. Proses robotik ini dapat membuat semua struktur serat karbon, menangani proses pemotongan, pengeboran, dan pengamplasan hingga semua bagian-bagiannya siap untuk perakitan akhir. Tujuan perusahaan pada November 2019 adalah meningkatkan efisiensi alur produksi Electron hingga mencapai laju produksi hanya tujuh hari untuk satu roket.<ref name="sn20191113">{{Cite news|url=https://spacenews.com/rocket-lab-introduces-robotic-manufacturing-system-to-increase-electron-production/|title=Rocket Lab introduces robotic manufacturing system to increase Electron production|work=[[SpaceNews]]|last=Foust|first=Jeff|date=13 November 2019|access-date=14 November 2019}}</ref><ref name="Forbes-20191121"> {{Cite magazine|magazine=Forbes}} </ref>
 
Produksi mesin Rutherford menggunakan metode [[Percetakan 3D|manufaktur aditif]] yang telah dilakukan secara ekstensif sejak penerbangan awal Electron. Metode ini memungkinkan kemampuan untuk meningkatkan skala produksi dengan cara yang relatif mudah dengan meningkatkan jumlah dan kemampuan printer 3D.<ref name="sn20191113">{{Cite news|url=https://spacenews.com/rocket-lab-introduces-robotic-manufacturing-system-to-increase-electron-production/|title=Rocket Lab introduces robotic manufacturing system to increase Electron production|work=[[SpaceNews]]|last=Foust|first=Jeff|date=13 November 2019|access-date=14 November 2019}}</ref>

== Riwayat peluncuran ==
Electron telah terbang 1213 kali sejak Mei 2017, 11 peluncuran berhasil dan 12 gagal. Penerbangan uji awal, disebut "It's a Test" gagal karena kesalahan pada peralatan komunikasi di darat. Meskipun demikian pada misi-misi selanjutnya, "Still Testing", "It's Business Time" dan "This One's For Pickering" berhasil mengirimkan beberapa muatan kecil ke orbit Bumi rendah. Pada Agustus 2019, sebuah misi bernama "Look Ma, No Hands" berhasil mengirim empat satelit ke orbit,<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.space.com/rocket-lab-electron-launches-four-satellites-eighth-flight.html|title=Rocket Lab Electron Booster Launches 4 Satellites Into Orbit|work=Space.com|last=Howell|first=Elizabeth|access-date=22 August 2019|date=19 August 2019}}</ref> dan pada Oktober 2019, misi yang bernama "As the Crow Flies" berhasil diluncurkan dari [[Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1|LC-1]] di Mahia Peninsula, mengantar satelit kecil dan tahap ketiganya menuju orbit parkir setinggi 400 &nbsp;km.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://techcrunch.com/2019/10/16/rocket-lab-successfully-launches-fifth-electron-rocket-this-year/|title=Rocket Lab successfully launches fifth Electron rocket this year|work=TechCrunch|first=Darrell|last=Etherington|date=16 October 2019|access-date=20 November 2019}}</ref> Pada 4 Juni 2020, misi peluncuran "Pics or It Didn't Happen" mengalami kegagalan yang menyebabkan roket beserta seluruh muatannya kembali masuk ke atmosfer dan hancur. Kegagalan terjadi sekitar lima menit dan 45 detik setelah peluncuran ketika siaran video terpotong dan telemetry yang diterima dari roket menunjukkan kondisi yang tidak biasa. Penyebab pasti kegagalan belum diketahui.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://spacenews.com/rocket-lab-electron-launch-fails/|title=Rocket Lab Electron launch fails|date=2020-07-04|website=SpaceNews|language=en-US|access-date=2020-07-05}}</ref>
