Soyuz 2.1a/Fregat-M | CAS500-1 & rideshare
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaBaikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan
March 22, 2021, 6:07 a.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:
CAS500-1 is the first of two South Korean Earth observation satellites. These spacecraft feature the AEISS-C imaging system with a ground resolution of 0.5 m in panchromatic mode and 2 m in color mode. More than a dozen other satellites are included as secondary payloads, among them being the first spacecraft by the Catalan Space Agency.

Starship SN10 | 10 km Flight
SpaceX | United States of AmericaSpaceX Starbase, TX, USA
March 3, 2021, 11:15 p.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:
The SN10 Starship performed a test flight similar to SN8 and SN9. It launched up to an altitude of 10 km or 33,000 ft, did a belly flop maneuver followed by a controlled descent to the landing pad. Despite successfully performing the landing flip maneuver with its three Raptor engines, its vertical velocity was too high on landing, damaging its structure and resulting in an explosive destruction a few minutes after touchdown.

Indian Space Research Organization | IndiaSatish Dhawan Space Centre, India
Feb. 28, 2021, 4:54 a.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:
Amazonia 1 is a Brazilian optical Earth observation satellite of the National Institute for Space Research (INPE). This satellite will further strengthen the existing structure by providing remote sensing data to users for monitoring deforestation in the Amazon region and analysis of diversified agriculture across the Brazilian territory. The 18 co-passenger satellites include four from IN-SPACe (three UNITYsats from consortium of three Indian academic institutes and One Satish Dhawan Sat from Space Kidz India) and 14 from NSIL.
