Florida Launch Schedule
Upcoming launches out of Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral AFB
Falcon 9 Block 5 | TSIS-2
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
The Total and Spectral Solar Irradiance Sensor 2 (TSIS-2) is a satellite designed by NASA to measure the Sun's energy input to Earth. TSIS-2 comprises two instruments, the Total Irradiance Monitor (TIM), and the spectral Irradiance Monitor (SIM). TIM measures total brightness and SIM measures spectral irradiance over a wavelength range that includes 96% of the energy in the solar spectrum. Both instruments are similar to those used for the TSIS-1 mission onboard the International Space Station.
Sun-Synchronous Orbit
Falcon Heavy | Gateway PPE & HALO
SpaceX | United States of AmericaKennedy Space Center, FL, USA
TBD December, 2027
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.
Lunar Orbit
Falcon 9 Block 5 | 6x Astranis MicroGEO
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Six Astranis MicroGEO communications satellite to be inserted into Low Earth orbit by the Falcon 9, from where the Helios upper stage provided by Impulse Space will carry the satellites to geostationary orbit within 24 hours of launch.
Geostationary OrbitFalcon 9 Block 5 | GEO-KOMPSAT-3
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
3.7-ton South Korean geostationary communications satellite also known as Chollian-3. Designed to replace GEO-Kompsat-1 launched in 2010, it features advanced payloads for communications, disaster prevention, maritime safety and the safe flight of aircraft
Geostationary Transfer OrbitFalcon 9 Block 5 | Al Yah 4
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2027
Falcon 9 Block 5 | Thaicom 10
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Thaicom 10, built by Airbus Defence and Space, will provide over 120 gigabits per second (Gbps) of capacity, with flexibility and instant configuration to adapt dynamically to the customers’ needs. The satellite will provide extended connectivity over the region for Thaicom’s customers and partners across the Asia Pacific.
