Ariane 6 will fly in the Ariane 62 configuration\, using 2 so lid rocket boosters.\n-\nMTG-I 2 is the third satellite in the 3rd generat ion series of Meteosat. It is built on the SmallGEO (LUXOR) bus of OHB wit h Thales Alenia Space instruments and weighs about 3.76 tonnes. MTG (Met eosat Third Generation) is the follow-up system to the Meteosat MSG ser ies of geostationary satellites. MTG will consist of a twin configuration of 3-axis-stabilised satellites: the Imaging mission satellite (MTG-I) an d the Sounding mission satellite (MTG-S). The payload for MTG-I consists of the Flexible Combined Imager (FCI)\, Lightning Imager (LI)\, Data Colle ction System (DCS)\, and search and rescue (GEOSAR). The FCI is expected to outperform MSG Spinning and Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIR I) observations on cloud\, aerosol\, moisture and fire by adding new chann els in the solar domain and by improving temporal-\, spatial-\, and radiom etric resolution. For instance\, the FCI in its High Resolution Fast Image ry mode focusing on Europe/North Africa with a resolution down to 500 met ers and a repeat cycle of 2.5 minutes will produce the greatest benefits t o Nowcasting services. The IRS will provide breakthrough measurements on the time evolution of horizontal and vertical water vapour and temperature structures. It is an unprecedented source of information on the dynamic a nd thermodynamic atmospheric fields\, an important benefit to the Nowcasti ng and Numerical Weather Prediction services. It will also support forecas ting pollution and monitoring of atmospheric minor constituents through it s capability to provide estimates of diurnal variations of tropospheric co ntributions of atmospheric trace gases like ozone and carbon monoxide. Th e LI mission will deliver continuously and simultaneously measurements on total lightning over the full disk\, improving the quality of information essential for Nowcasting services\, for instance early warning of severe w eather and air traffic routing and safety. The LI is therefore expected to contribute significantly to risk reduction measures. It will also contrib ute to the remote sensing of precipitation and support environmental appli cations related to the atmospheric chemical processes and to the climate s ystem.\n-\nDelayed from June.\n\nWebcast:\nhttps://www.arianespace.com/roa d-to-space/ LOCATION:ELA4 (l'Ensemble de Lancement Ariane 6) - Centre Spatial Guyanais \, Französisch-Guyana END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Falcon Heavy • RST DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260830T112600Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260830T112600Z UID:456331298875 DESCRIPTION:A SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket will launch NASA's Nancy Grace Ro man Space Telescope\, formerly known as WFIRST (Wide-Field Infrared Surv ey Telescope).

The first stage will perform a RTLS landing at LZ-40.\n-\nMoved forw ard from Oct. 12.\n\nWebcast: \nhttps://plus.nasa.gov/scheduled-video/nasa s-spacex-crew-13-launch/ LOCATION:Space Launch Complex 40\, Cape Canaveral\, FL\, Vereinigte Staate n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Vega C • Sentinel 3C & FLEX DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260915T012100Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260915T012100Z UID:183179277961 DESCRIPTION:An Avio Vega C rocket\, designated VV30\, will launch the Sent inel 3C Earth observation satellite for the European Space Agency and the European Commission into orbit. It will be part of the Copernicus program. \n-\nSentinel 3 will determine parameters such as sea surface topography\, sea/land surface temperature\, ocean and land colour with high-end accura cy and reliability. For this purpose\, it carries an advanced radar altime ter and a multi-channel optical imaging instrument. To achieve near-global coverage and meet all scientific requirements\, Sentinel 3 will be placed in a high-inclination\, sun-synchronous polar orbit. Near-realtime data p rocessing and delivery will allow operational services to continuously pro fit from the mission. The satellite is designed for a minimum lifetime of 7 years.\n-\nDelayed from late 2024. Moved forward from Q4 2025. Delayed f rom Q3 2025. Delayed from Sep. 1\, 9 and 11.

The mission is na med "?".\n-\nHawk 16A/B are 30kg? satellites based on the Defiant bus by H awkEye 360 and are part of a space-based civil global intelligence network that will use radio frequency (RF) technology to help monitor transportat ion across air\, land and sea and assist with emergencies\, which is essen tially a civil SIGINT (Signal Intelligence) mission. The constellation of small satellites\, called HawkEye\, in low Earth orbit (LEO) will collect information on specific radio signals worldwide to provide high-precision radio frequency mapping and analytics.

Starship will be a stretched version equipped with Rap tor 3 engines and perform a payload deployment of 20 Starlink V3 satellite s and a relight of a single Raptor engine while in space. Super Heavy will perform an ocean landing in the Gulf of Mexico. It will have an integrate d vented interstage/forward dome\, three grid fins instead of the prior fo ur\, as well as the use of the grid fins as catch points. The booster/ship combination is designated as B21/S41\, both of the Block 3 variant.\n-\nS tarlink v3 satellites are built by SpaceX and have a reported launch mass of ~2 tonnes. The mass-produced spacecraft carry a communications payload using the Ku and Ka frequency bands\, plus E-band for backhaul\, which wil l allow Starlink to provide ~10x more capacity per satellite than earlier iterations. They also employ optical inter-satellite links\, phased array beam forming and digital processing technologies. Like the v2 satellites t he v3 sats are equipped with more powerful Argon Hall thrusters. Starlink sats are able to track on-orbit debris and capable of autonomous collision avoidance. All satellites will be equipped with anti-reflective coatings. \nThe updated Starlink network architecture has 1584 satellites at 550km a ltitude and an inclination of 53 degrees\, 1584 satellites at 540km and an inclination of 53.2 degrees\, 720 satellites at 570km and an inclination of 70 degrees\, and 520 satellites at 560km and an inclination of 97.6 deg rees. The initial FCC application covered 4408 Starlink satellites. Eventu ally SpaceX will launch and operate a follow-on network of 7518 additional Starlink satellites transmitting in V-band frequencies. In the final depl oyment stage an additional 30000 Starlink satellites might get orbited.\n- \nDelayed from late August. \n\nWebcast: \nhttps://www.spacex.com/launches /starship-flight-13\nhttps://spaceflightnow.com/ LOCATION:SpaceX Starship Orbital Launch Pad\, Boca Chica Blvd\, Brownsvill e\, TX 78521\, Vereinigte Staaten END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:(NET) Electron • Blacksky 25 DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260915 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260916 UID:112281115097 DESCRIPTION:A Rocket Lab Electron rocket topped with a Curie upper stage w ill launch the sixth BlackSky Gen 3 satellite (designated Global 36?) int o a circular 470km orbit. Rocket Lab's mission is named "Insight at Speed is a Friend Indeed".\n-\nThe BlackSky constellation of 1m resolution Earth observation microsatellites will be deployed by BlackSky Global LLC. The Gen 3 satellite's enhanced capabilities include short-wave infrared sensor s that can penetrate smoke and haze\, as well as the ability to conduct mu ltiple observations of the same location within a day. The satellite’s i nter-satellite laser links will enable rapid retasking for time-sensitive missions\, a feature particularly valuable for defense and intelligence ap plications.\n\nWebcast: \nhttps://rocketlabcorp.com/live-stream/ LOCATION:Onenui Station\, Māhia 4198\, Neuseeland END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
