Falcon 9 Block 5 | Thor 8
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Thor 8 is a multi-purpose communications satellite for Space Norway. The satellite will both replace older satellites being phased out in the coming years and provide increased capacity and service offerings that offers capacity for both data services and broadcasting, such as high power direct-to-home (DTH) television services, from the 1° West orbital position. It carries two dedicated payloads for broadcasting in Europe and the Nordics, as well as payloads for data services to commercial and governmental customers. With a launch mass of 4 metric tons, the satellite will be built on Thales Alenia Space’s Spacebus-4000B2 platform and will operate in the Ka and Ku frequency bands.
Geostationary Transfer 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 | NEO Surveyor
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD June, 2028
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
NASA's Near-Earth Object (NEO) Surveyor mission is designed to help advance planetary defense efforts to discover and characterize most of the potentially hazardous asteroids and comets that come within 30 million miles of Earth’s orbit. These are collectively known as near-earth objects, or NEOs. NEO Surveyor consists of a single scientific instrument: a 50 centimeter (nearly 20 inch) diameter telescope that operates in two heat-sensing infrared wavelengths. It will be capable of detecting both bright and dark asteroids, which are the most difficult type to find.
Heliocentric L1
Falcon Heavy | Dragonfly
SpaceX | United States of AmericaKennedy Space Center, FL, USA
TBD July, 2028
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Dragonfly is NASA's 4th New Frontiers program mission that will send a robotic rotorcraft to fly within the atmosphere of Saturn's moon Titan to sample materials and determine surface composition in different geologic settings, advancing humanity's search for the building blocks of life. The craft is a large quadcopter with double rotors with mass of about 875 kg, featuring rotors of 1.35 m in diameter. It can fly through several kilometers within an hour and will perform 1 flight per Titan day (~16 Earth days). During the planned 3.3-year mission, Dragonfly is expected to cover distance up to several hundred km. Dragonfly will use a Multi-Mission Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (MMRTG) to power its instruments. The planned science instrument suite is: * DragonCam: Camera Suite * DrACO: Drill for Acquisition of Complex Organics * DraMS: Mass Spectrometer * DraGNS: Gamma-ray and Neutron Spectrometer * DraGMet: Geophysics and Meteorology

Falcon 9 Block 5 | EchoStar 26
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2028
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
EchoStar 26 is a direct broadcast satellite, built on the proven Maxar 1300 series platform, which will deliver content across DISH TV customers across all 50 U.S. states & Puerto Rico. It will be equipped with a high-power, multi-spot beam payload, allowing DISH to provide high-quality content to its customers.

Falcon 9 Block 5 | KPS-1
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD September, 2029
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
KPS-1 is South Korea's first navigation satellite, the 1st of 8 satellites planned for the Korean Positioning System (KPS). This will be one of 5 satellites to be deployed into an Inclined Geosynchronous Orbit (IGSO), with the other 3 in geostationary orbits. The KPS is scheduled to be completed by 2035.
