SAOCOM 1B is the second of the two satellite SAOCOM 1 satellites and will launch into a sun-synchronous polar orbit from SLC-40, Cape Canaveral AFS. Previously, SAOCOM 1A launched from Vandenberg AFB in 2018 aboard Falcon 9 and was the first RTLS mission on the west coast. SAOCOM 1 are synthetic aperture radar Earth observation [...]
The 10th operational batch of Starlink satellites (11th overall) along with three Earth-observation satellites for Planet Labs will lift off from SLC-40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida on a Falcon 9 rocket. In the weeks following deployment the Starlink satellites will use onboard ion thrusters to reach their operational altitude of 550 km. [...]
The tenth Starlink launch overall and the ninth operational batch of Starlink satellites will launch into orbit aboard a Falcon 9 rocket. This mission is expected to deploy 58-60 Starlink satellites into an elliptical orbit roughly 25 minutes into the flight. In the weeks following launch the satellites are expected to utilize their onboard ion [...]

ANASIS-II is a South Korean military communications satellite, built by Airbus Defense and Space and operated by South Korea's Agency for Defense Development. Based on the Eurostar-3000 platform the satellite will operate in geostationary orbit and provide wide coverage over the Korean Peninsula. A Falcon 9 rocket will deliver the spacecraft to a geostationary transfer [...]
What's the correct pronunciation here? Momentum is building among planetary scientists to send a major mission to Uranus or Neptune — the most distant and least explored planets in the Solar System. Huge gaps remain in scientists’ knowledge of the blueish planets, known as the ice giants, which have been visited only once by a [...]
The ninth Starlink launch overall and the eighth operational batch of Starlink satellites will launch into orbit aboard a Falcon 9 rocket. This mission is expected to deploy up to sixty Starlink satellites into an elliptical orbit about fifteen minutes into the flight. In the weeks following launch the satellites are expected to utilize their [...]
