SpaceX leads a busy run of missions in a global launch schedule that lists multiple Falcon 9 flights and longer range Falcon Heavy work. The schedule shows Falcon 9 will carry batches of 27 Starlink V2 Mini satellites on planned missions from Vandenberg Space Force Base. A recent Falcon 9 attempt was scrubbed because of an apparent technical issue, the listing states.
The schedule identifies the first stage booster for one mission as tail number B1063, which is slated for its 36th flight and aims to land on the droneship Of Course I Still Love You in the Pacific Ocean. Another nearby Falcon 9 mission is listed as a separate Starlink batch that will likewise target a droneship recovery. The same roster notes a Falcon 9 is also assigned to a Turkish lunar mission and a Falcon Heavy is scheduled to launch NASA's Dragonfly rotorcraft to Titan, with a 20 day launch window for that heavy-lift flight.
Other Providers And Long Range Fleet Moves
The schedule also highlights a concentration of small-satellite and rideshare activity from other launchers. Rocket Lab has multiple Electron missions listed, including a flight carrying three HawkEye 360 satellites to a 520 kilometer sun-synchronous orbit and two dedicated QPS-SAR radar satellites for iQPS, the listing notes. Rocket Lab entries identify the Mahia, New Zealand pad as the launch site for those missions.
Europe’s Ariane 6 is shown flying a 36-satellite batch for Amazon under the Leo Europe 4 designation, using the Ariane 64 configuration with four P160C solid boosters and a Vulcain 2.1 main engine, the schedule states. United Launch Alliance appears with two cargo and crew-adjacent missions listed, an Atlas 5 flight carrying Boeing's Starliner in an uncrewed cargo role, and a Vulcan Centaur slated to launch Sierra Space’s Dream Chaser in a VC4L configuration with four GEM-63XL boosters and dual RL10 engines on Centaur.
Firefly Aerospace’s Alpha Block 2 debut is on the schedule from Vandenberg, described as a longer rocket with increased liquid oxygen tanks on both stages. The launch roster notes delays for several vehicles but maintains a steady pipeline of commercial and government missions from a range of providers, underscoring a crowded manifest across orbital classes.
