The next 20 space launches

Follow the next 20 space launches in one calendar: mission, rocket, operator, launch site and schedule status. Precise launch times appear in your device’s time zone; tentative dates retain their stated level of precision.

Data: Launch Library 2 — The Space Devs. This calendar uses one data provider; it is not an independent verification of every mission. Merlintrader’s server retrieves and caches the data for up to three hours. Loading the list does not require your browser to contact the provider.

Dates can change. Completed, cancelled and in-flight launches are excluded. The list depends on the provider’s coverage and may include suborbital missions; it does not cover every reentry or satellite pass.

How to read dates and status

“Schedule confirmed” reflects the provider’s Go status: the time is confirmed by official sources or sources the provider considers reliable, but it can change. It does not guarantee liftoff. “To be confirmed” and “Date not set” indicate schedule uncertainty; “On hold” signals a pause.

Days, months, quarters, half-years and years remain tentative windows. “Awaiting update” means the stated time or window has passed; it does not prove a launch has taken place.

A window into the space sector

Use the calendar to follow launch activity, then return to the company hubs for context. A launch does not automatically imply a contract, revenue or a stock-price impact.

The operator filter applies to the 20 launches in the calendar, so a single operator may return fewer results. Conferences and industry meetings are covered in the separate event calendar.
