Upcoming Space Launches
Vega-C | Sentinel-3C & FLEX
Sentinel-3C is the third satellite in the Sentinel-3 constellation, which provides high-accuracy optical, radar and altimetry data for marine and land services. The Fluorescence Explorer (FLEX) satellite is a part of ESA's Earth Explorer program. The satellite will map vegetation fluorescence to quantify photosynthetic activity.
Zhuque-2E Block 2 | Unknown Payload
Possibly launch of a batch of SpaceSail LEO communication satellites. Details TBD.
Gravity-1 | Unknown Payload
Possibly launch of a batch of SpaceSail LEO communication satellites. Details TBD.
Falcon 9 Block 5 | USSF-259
USSF-259 is a classified mission for the United States Space Force. It is possibly a batch of classified LEO satellites based on SpaceX’s Starshield satellite bus, based on locations of ascent rocket stage drop zones being fits with previous SDA Transport Layer launches.
Soyuz 2.1b | Progress MS-35 (96P)
Progress resupply mission to the International Space Station.
Long March 12 | Unknown Payload
Details TBD.
Kuaizhou 11 | Unknown Payload
Details TBD.
Long March 2D | Unknown Payload
Details TBD.
Falcon 9 Block 5 | Starlink Group 15-27
A batch of 27 satellites for the Starlink mega-constellation - SpaceX's project for space-based Internet communication system.
Starship | Flight 14
14th test flight of the two-stage Starship launch vehicle. 3rd flight of Starship V3 and the first Starship flight to deploy satellites (a group of Starlink satellites) into stable Low Earth Orbit.
Electron | LOXSAT 1
LOXSAT 1 is a demonstration satellite of a complete cryogenic oxygen fluid management system in orbit, developed by Eta Space and sponsored by NASA's Tipping Point program. The system will be integrated on a Rocket Lab Photon-LEO satellite bus and collect critical cryogenic fluid management data in orbit for 9 months, demonstrating capabilities of in-space cryogenic storage and transferal. Eta Space plans to use technology developed for this mission to develop a truly commercial depot intended to serve multiple customers in the future.
Falcon 9 Block 5 | Crew-13
SpaceX Crew-13 is the thirteenth crewed operational flight of a Crew Dragon spacecraft to the International Space Station as part of NASA's Commercial Crew Program.
Falcon 9 Block 5 | SDA Tranche 1 Transport Layer A
Tranche 1 Transport Layer A is one of six missions by the United States Space Force Space Development Agency (SDA) for the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA) Tranche 1 Transport Layer constellation, which will provide assured, resilient, low-latency military data and connectivity worldwide to the full range of warfighter platforms from Low Earth Orbit satellites. The constellation will be interconnected with Optical Inter-Satellite Links (OISLs) which have significantly increased performance over existing radio frequency crosslinks. It is expected to operate over Ka band, have stereo coverage and be dynamically networked for simpler hand-offs, greater bandwidth and fault tolerance. This launch carries 21 satellites manufactured by Northrop Grumman.
Long March 12A | Flight 2
Second test launch of CASC/SAST’s Long March 12A rocket. Payload identities are TBD.
Long March 8A | Unknown Payload
Details TBD.
Vulcan VC6L | Amazon Leo (LV-01)
Amazon Leo, formerly known as Project Kuiper, is a mega constellation of satellites in Low Earth Orbit that will offer broadband internet access, this constellation will be managed by Kuiper Systems LLC, a subsidiary of Amazon. This constellation is planned to be composed of 3,276 satellites. The satellites are projected to be placed in 98 orbital planes in three orbital layers, one at 590 km, 610 km and 630 km altitude. 45 satellites will be carried on each Vulcan launch.
Electron | 6x HawkEye 360
HawkEye 360 is a a space-based civil global intelligence satellite network using radio frequency (RF) technology to help monitor transportation across air, land and sea and assist with emergencies, and to provide civil SIGINT (Signal Intelligence) mission. The constellation of small satellites (named Hawk ) will collect information on specific radio signals worldwide to provide high-precision radio frequency mapping and analytics from Low Earth orbit (LEO).
Themis Demonstrator | T1H-1
First low-altitude hop test of a Themis demonstrator, with a targeted altitude up to 100 m.

Before you follow a mission
Check the mission name, launch site and time-zone label. A listed timestamp is a target and can change. Use the operator’s mission announcement to confirm a broadcast or a viewing plan.
The cards describe flights supplied by the data provider. Counts refer to the returned catalogue or the loaded cards, as labelled. A timer passing zero does not confirm liftoff.
