I found Rocket Lab's Twitter feed at:
and it appears that the launch is now scheduled for 1430 NZDT (0130 UTC) Saturday December 9 at the earliest. If that doesn't work out, then the next attempt might be made on Monday due to an unfavourable weather forecast for Sunday.
Video streaming is supposed to begin about 12 minutes before launch.

According to the latest Twitter posting, it looks like the next attempt will be at 0130 UTC Monday (i. e., 1730 PST Sunday) when there will be good weather conditions.

The video feed is active right now but there's no picture yet. It appears that lift-off is scheduled for 0200 UTC today.
Go Electron! Go Rocket Lab!
