SpaceX Launch Schedule
Space Exploration Technologies Corp., known as SpaceX, is an American aerospace manufacturer and space transport services company headquartered in Hawthorne, California. It was founded in 2002 by entrepreneur Elon Musk with the goal of reducing space transportation costs and enabling the colonization of Mars. SpaceX operates from many pads, on the East Coast of the US they operate from SLC-40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and historic LC-39A at Kennedy Space Center. They also operate from SLC-4E at Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, usually for polar launches. Another launch site is being developed at Boca Chica, Texas.

SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD August, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Wide-field gamma-ray telescope designed to study energetic phenomena in the Milky Way and beyond, including the creation and destruction of matter and antimatter and the final stages of the lives of stars. The mission is a collaboration between the University of California, Berkeley’s Space Sciences Laboratory, the University of California, San Diego, the Naval Research Laboratory, NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, and Northrop Grumman.
Low Earth Orbit
Falcon 9 Block 5 | PAM-6 (Vast ISS Mission 1)
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD September, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Vast’s first private crew rotation to the International Space Station aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft, and NASA's 6th Private Astronaut Mission to the ISS. The crew includes ESA/CNES astronaut Thomas Pesquet, who will serve as Commander for the mission, and Czech astronaut Aleš Svoboda. The mission will carry 4 astronauts to and from the International Space Station for up to 2 weeks. Note: Official mission name to be confirmed.
Low Earth Orbit Unknown F9 - Maiden Flight Landing Zone 40Falcon 9 Block 5 | Arabsat 7A
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD October, 2027
Falcon 9 Block 5 | SICRAL 3B
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD November, 2027
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 | Nova-C IM-4 & 2 Lunar Data Relay Satellites
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2027
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.
