Falcon 9 Block 5 | JSAT-31
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
JSAT-31 is a geostationary communication satellite for SKY Perfect JSAT. Operating both in Ka and Ku frequency bands, the JSAT-31 High Throughput Satellite will offer high speed broadband services over Japan, South-East Asia, Australia, New Zealand and Pacific islands. JSAT-31 will have the largest capacity in the history of SKY Perfect JSAT satellites. It will rely on Space INSPIRE, a highly flexible and fully software-defined solution that offers instant in-orbit adjustment to broadband connectivity demand, while maximizing the effective use of the satellite resources. SKY Perfect JSAT will leverage the satellite’s extreme flexibility to offer enhanced communications services all along JSAT-31’s lifespan in orbit.

Starship | Starlab
SpaceX | United States of AmericaKennedy Space Center, FL, USA
Falcon Heavy | USSF-63
SpaceX | United States of AmericaKennedy Space Center, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Classified payload for the US Space Force. This launch will also carry the Oracle-M, a cutting-edge SSA pathfinder satellite designed to provide persistent situational awareness in cis-lunar space, demonstrating new tracking and navigation capabilities essential for future space operations. The mission will showcase tracking and trajectory estimation for monitoring cis-lunar objects, cloud-based ground operations with integrated government and contractor collaboration, and navigation and communications using affordable commercial ground systems. It will also support data collection and distribution to those charged with maintaining cis-lunar situational awareness.
UnknownFalcon Heavy | Gateway PPE & HALO
SpaceX | United States of AmericaKennedy Space Center, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
The Power and Propulsion Element (PPE) and Habitation and Logistics Outpost (HALO) are the foundational elements of NASA's lunar-orbiting space station "Gateway". The PPE is a 60-kilowatt class solar electric propulsion spacecraft that also will provide power, high-speed communications, attitude control and the capability to move the Gateway to different lunar orbits. The HALO is the pressurized living quarters where astronauts who visit the Gateway, often on their way to the Moon, will work. It will provide command and control and serve as the docking hub for the outpost. HALO will support science investigations, distribute power, provide communications for visiting vehicles and lunar surface expeditions, and supplement the life support systems aboard Orion, NASA’s spacecraft that will deliver Artemis astronauts to the Gateway.

United Launch Alliance | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Vulcan VC6L | Amazon Leo (LV-02)
United Launch Alliance | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
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.
