Atlas V N22 | CST-100 Starliner Orbital Flight Test (Uncrewed)
United Launch Alliance | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
Dec. 20, 2019, 11:36 a.m.
Status: Success
Mission: Test Flight
This is the first test flight of Starliner spacecraft to the International Space Station. Although Atlas V and Centaur upper stage successfully put Starliner into planned trajectory, the spacecraft was unable to perform a nominal orbital insertion. Preliminary analysis indicate that Mission Elapsed Time (MET) system error led to Starliner burning more fuel than expected. Spacecraft is healthy and in stable orbit, but won't be able to reach and dock with ISS. Landing at White Sands Facility is planned on Dec 22.

Atlas V 551 | AEHF-5
United Launch Alliance | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
Aug. 8, 2019, 10:13 a.m.
Status: Success
Mission: Communications
This is the fifth satellite in the Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) system, which is a series of communications satellites operated by the United States Air Force Space Command. It provides global, survivable, protected communications capabilities for strategic command and tactical warfighters operating on ground, sea and air platforms.

Delta IV M+(5,4) | WGS-10
United Launch Alliance | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
March 16, 2019, 12:26 a.m.
Status: Success
Mission: Communications
WGS-10 is the tenth and final satellite in Wideband Global Satcom constellation. These are high-capacity military communications satellites providing vital service for tactical forces who rely on WGS for connectivity to the Defence Information Systems Network (DISN).

Atlas V 401 | InSight, Mars Cube One 1 & Mars Cube One 2
United Launch Alliance | USAVandenberg AFB, CA, USA
May 5, 2018, 11:05 a.m.
Status: Success
Mission: Planetary Science
InSight is a robotic Mars lander designed to study the interior and subsurface of Mars, which would in turn help scientists to understand the Earth and Solar System history. Two 6U CubeSats will piggyback with the InSight mission to help relay communications during the probe's entry, descent, and landing (EDL) phase.
Heliocentric N/A #InSightAtlas V 551 | AFSPC-11
United Launch Alliance | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
April 14, 2018, 11:13 p.m.
Status: Success
Mission: Government/Top Secret
Primary payload of the mission is the Continuous Broadcast Augmenting SATCOM (CBAS) satellite, which will be placed in geosynchronous orbit. It will continously relay data from from existing military communications satellites to support senior leaders and combatant commanders. This mission will also launch a number of secondary payloads hosted on the ESPA Augmented Geostationary Laboratory Experiment (EAGLE).

Atlas V 541 | GOES-S
United Launch Alliance | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
March 1, 2018, 10:02 p.m.
Status: Success
Mission: Earth Science
The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-S Series (GOES-S) is the second of the next generation of geostationary weather satellites. The four satellites of the series will provide advanced imaging with increased spatial resolution and faster coverage for more accurate forecasts, real-time mapping of lightning activity, and improved monitoring of solar activity. GOES-S will provide continuous imagery and atmospheric measurements of the Western Hemisphere. GOES-S will be the primary tool for the detection and tracking of hurricanes and severe weather. Once operational as GOES-17, the satellite wil replace GOES-15 satellite.
