Florida's Space Coast set a record with 109 orbital rocket launches in 2025, surpassing all previous annual totals. While 2026 has seen fewer launches through June compared to the record-breaking pace of 2025, 43 rockets have still lifted off from Florida's spaceports this year. That's more than double the 31 launches that occurred statewide in 2021, which was then considered a high-water mark. SpaceX continues to dominate the Cape's launch schedule with its Falcon 9 rocket, which is set to launch twice this week. Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket is not scheduled for any launches in 2026 after a technical issue forced the company to pause operations on the Eastern Range. The next major mission comes in August when SpaceX will launch NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope aboard a Falcon Heavy rocket. SpaceX is targeting July 5 for its first launch of the week, a Starlink mission from Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. The Falcon 9 rocket will carry 29 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit during a launch window from 6:36 a.m. to 10:36 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The second launch of the week is scheduled for July 7, also a Starlink mission with the same payload and trajectory. Both launches will be covered live by 321 Daily's Space Team starting 90 minutes before liftoff. Launch schedules often change due to weather, technical issues or range availability, so the exact times may shift.
