Falcon 9 Block 5 | Axiom Space Mission 5
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
This is a Crew Dragon flight for a private company Axiom Space. The mission will carry a professionally trained commander alongside three private astronauts to and from the International Space Station for a month.
Low Earth Orbit Unknown F9 - Maiden Flight Landing Zone 40
Falcon 9 Block 5 | SDA Tranche 2 Transport Layer C
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Firefly Alpha Block 2 | QuickSounder
Firefly Aerospace | United States of AmericaVandenberg SFB, CA, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
QuickSounder is the first satellite mission of the Near Earth Orbit Network (NEON) program of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which aims to replace the current Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) series of polar orbit weather satellites. This pathfinder mission will demonstrate NOAA's ability to launch a small satellite within 3 years, flying a refurbished Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS) instrument to polar orbit.
Sun-Synchronous OrbitFirefly Alpha Block 2 | ConnectedCosmos Launch 3
Firefly Aerospace | United States of AmericaVandenberg SFB, CA, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Third of at least four missions carrying 6 satellites for Open Cosmos' secure LEO broadband constellation, designed to provide independent and resilient connectivity infrastructure for Europe and the world using high-priority Ka-band spectrum filings by the Principality of Liechtenstein.
Polar OrbitFalcon 9 Block 5 | SICRAL 3A
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
SICRAL 3A and 3B are next generation communication satellites for the Italian Ministry of Defence, providing UHF and SHF communications services in replacement of SICRAL 2 and adding Ka-band capacities. One of the satellites will provide UHF and SHF band communications, while the other carries a Ka-band payload. These 2 geostationary satellites will provide confidential strategic and tactical communications, to support defense missions both in Italy and abroad, as well as supporting security, public rescue and civil protection services. The new SICRAL 3 system is designed to meet Italian defense communications and interoperability requirements.
Geostationary Transfer OrbitFalcon 9 Block 5 | SDA Tranche 2 Transport Layer G
SpaceX | United States of AmericaVandenberg SFB, CA, USA
Nova | AstroForge Autonomy-1 (Demo Flight)
Stoke Space | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
First launch of Stoke Space’s Nova launch vehicle. Asteroid mining technologies company AstroForge's Autonomy-1 will fly on this launch. Autonomy-1 will be the first full-scale flight demonstration of AstroForge's own spacecraft artificial intelligence model, Solo. The spacecraft will be tested for functionality in orbit without being commanded from the ground, and will transmit telemetry and science data back to Earth without human interference, including from COMPASS, a heliophysics science payload from NASA Goddard.
Low Earth OrbitFalcon 9 Block 5 | Haven-1
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Falcon 9 Block 5 | Nova-C IM-3
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
This is the third mission to the Moon for Intuitive Machines with its Nova-C lunar lander. It is to deliver 130 kg of payloads to the lunar surface. This mission also includes a rideshare possibility due to available excess capacity on the launch vehicle.
