🚀 Launch Schedule
The next rockets on the pad · live go status · updated every few hours
The next rockets booked on pads around the world, with each mission's go status and the weather probability standing behind the countdown. Launch times move — weather, technical checks and range safety all push schedules — so a slot shown here is a plan, not a promise; the status column says how firm it is.

The next three, in detail
Long March 12 | SatNet LEO Group TBD? — 2026-11-08 20:25 UTC (in 35 h)
A batch of 9 Low Earth Orbit communication satellites for the Chinese state owned SatNet constellation operated by the China Satellite Network Group.
The constellation will eventually consists of 13000 satellites.
Falcon 9 Block 5 | USSF-627 — 2026-11-10 03:03 UTC (in 3 days)
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.
Mir | Demo Flight — 2026-11-11 05:00 UTC (in 4 days)
Note: Launch vehicle name is provisional.
First orbital full version launch of the South Korean military small satellite launch vehicle, after 2 sub-orbital tests of individual stages on 30 March and 30 December 2022, and 1 orbital test flight without the 2nd stage on 4 December 2023. Details TBD.
How to read a launch schedule
Go means the window is confirmed as scheduled. TBC / Maybe means the operator still expects to fly but has not committed — usually weather is the question. No-go / Scrub / Post means that attempt is off and a new date is being sought. The probability number is the weather forecast for the window: 70% or higher is what launch directors call flyable. Delays are not failures — at Cape Canaveral most scrubbed attempts fly again within days.
NASA's own missions (and the reasoning behind each slip) are announced first on NASA's launch page; this table mirrors the community-run Launch Library 2 database, credited as our source and refreshed every couple of hours. See also who is already up there and where the Space Station is right now.
