🚀 Electron
Synthetic aperture radar satellite for Japanese Earth imaging company Synspective.
A classified mission for the United States Space Force. It is possibly a batch of classified LEO satellites based on SpaceX’s Starshield satellite bus, based on locations of rocket stage drop zones being exact fits with previous Starlink Group 15 launches.
Third flyby of ESA's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) mission on its way to the Jovian system.
14th test flight of the two-stage Starship launch vehicle. 3rd flight of Starship V3 and the first Starship flight to deploy satellites (a group of Starlink satellites known as Starlink Group 31-1) into stable Low Earth Orbit. The ship is expected to fly at an altitude approximately 275 km above Earth and complete approximately 6 orbits around the planet for nearly 10 hours, with splashdown targeted in the Pacific Ocean west of Chile. The booster’s primary test objective on Flight 14 will be executing a successful launch, ascent, stage separation, boostback burn, and landing burn at an offshore landing point in the Gulf. Starship will deliver 26 Starlink V3 satellites to orbit for the first time, which aim to greatly expand the network's capacity and user speeds. Each Starlink V3 satellite will add 1 Tbps of capacity to the constellation.

Chang'e 7/CE-7 is scheduled to launch in 2026, including an orbiter, a lander, a mini-hopping probe, and a rover. The mission will land in the South Pole regions of the Moon to study lunar surface environment around the South Pole, especially in looking for water ice in lunar soil.
First flight of Blue Origin's Blue Moon MK1 lunar lander, MK1-SN001 "Endurance".
Innospace
🚀 HANBIT-Nano
Innospace's first in-house test satellite, 'InnoSat-0', will test various technologies for future development of satellites by Innospace themselves. The satellite will be deployed using Korean company SpaceBey’s specialized deployer.
🚀 Vulcan
Classified mission launched by the Space Development Agency (SDA) for Tranche 2 Transport Layer.
A batch of 27 satellites for the Starlink mega-constellation - SpaceX's project for space-based Internet communication system.
SpaceX Crew-13 is the thirteenth crewed operational flight of a Crew Dragon spacecraft to the International Space Station as part of NASA's Commercial Crew Program.
The Crew-13 Crew Dragon will dock autonomously to the International Space Station, carrying four astronauts to the International Space Station.
HyImpulse
🚀 SR75
Test flight of HyImpulse's SR75 sounding rocket.
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. 35-40 satellites will be carried on each Ariane 6 launch.
