About the SpaceX Launch Tracker
This tracker pulls live data from the community-maintained SpaceX API v5, the most comprehensive open database of SpaceX mission information available. Data includes launch dates, mission names, payload descriptions, launch pad locations, rocket configurations, and mission success indicators. The API is updated by contributors following each SpaceX announcement and post-launch report. As of 2026, SpaceX has completed over 300 orbital missions with an industry-leading success rate above 97%.
SpaceX Rocket Fleet Overview
SpaceX currently operates three rocket families. The Falcon 9 is a two-stage orbital rocket with a reusable first stage booster. Each booster can be reflown many times, dramatically reducing launch costs. Falcon 9 is the most frequently launched orbital rocket in history. The Falcon Heavy uses three Falcon 9 cores strapped together, capable of launching 63.8 tonnes to low Earth orbit — the most powerful operational rocket before Starship. Starship is SpaceX's next-generation fully reusable launch system designed for Mars missions, capable of carrying over 100 tonnes to orbit. The Starship Super Heavy booster produces more thrust than any rocket ever built, with over 70 Raptor engines generating approximately 74 meganewtons of thrust at sea level.
Understanding Launch Success Rates
SpaceX tracks mission outcomes as success, partial success, or failure. A mission is considered successful when the primary payload is delivered to the target orbit or destination. Booster recovery attempts — landing on drone ships or return-to-launch-site — are tracked separately from mission success, as a failed booster landing does not affect the primary mission outcome. Falcon 9's only in-flight failure was CRS-7 in June 2015; since then the vehicle has achieved an unbroken streak of mission successes spanning hundreds of launches. This reliability is a key reason Falcon 9 has captured the majority of the commercial satellite launch market.
Upcoming Launches and Mission Details
The upcoming launches tab shows all planned SpaceX missions sorted by launch date. Each mission card includes the mission name, target launch date, launch pad, rocket type, and payload description. Where available, a direct link to the official SpaceX webcast is shown — these streams are free to watch on SpaceX's YouTube channel and typically go live about 30–45 minutes before launch. Launch dates can shift due to weather constraints, range scheduling conflicts, or technical hold periods. Always verify with the official SpaceX webcast or SpaceX.com for the most current status before a scheduled launch.
