Atlas V 551 | ViaSat-3 EMEA
United Launch Alliance | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
TBD December, 2024
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
The ViaSat-3 is a series of three Ka-band satellites is expected to provide vastly superior capabilities in terms of service speed and flexibility for a satellite platform. Each ViaSat-3 class satellite is expected to deliver more than 1-Terabit per second of network capacity, and to leverage high levels of flexibility to dynamically direct capacity to where customers are located.
Geostationary Transfer Orbit
Terran 1 | VCLS Demo 2 Mission One
Relativity Space | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
TBD December, 2024
Falcon 9 Block 5 | Hakuto-R M2 “Resilience”
SpaceX | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
TBD December, 2024
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Second mission of the Hakuto-R commercial lunar lander developed by private Japanese company ispace. The lander will carry a small rover developed by ispace to perform studies on the moon's surface. The rover is also expected to collect lunar regolith as part of a contract with NASA signed in 2020, in which companies will collect materials on the moon and then transfer ownership "in situ" to the agency.
Lunar OrbitFalcon 9 Block 5 | Thuraya 4-NGS
SpaceX | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
TBD December, 2024
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Thuraya 4-NGS is a communication satellite being built by Airbus Defense and Space for the UAE based Yahsat. Based on the all-electric Airbus Eurostar-Neo Platform, Thuraya 4-NGS will incorporate a large 12-meter L-band antenna and a payload with on-board processing providing advanced routing flexibility of up to 3200 channels with dynamic power allocation over a large number of spot beams.

SpaceX | USACape Canaveral, FL, USA
TBD February, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe) is a NASA mission to study interactions between solar wind and local interstellar medium. Carrying a suite of 10 scientific instruments, IMAP is able to investigate how particles are accelerated, determine their composition, as well as help to advance space weather forecasting models. IMAP launch also includes several secondary payloads from NASA, which are: a small lunar orbiter called Lunar Trailblazer, space weather satellite SWFO-L1, GLIDE mission to study far ultraviolet emission in exosphere and a solar sail mission Solar Cruiser.
