Is there a launch today? SpaceX-heavy rocket launch schedule in Florida

Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and Kennedy Space Center will host multiple SpaceX launches in June, including two Falcon 9 missions deploying Starlink satellites, while NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope launch on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy is scheduled for early September. Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket explosion has delayed its launches indefinitely, leaving SpaceX as the primary operator in the region’s near-term schedule.
Florida’s Space Coast saw a record 109 orbital rocket launches in 2025, though 2026 has seen only 37 launches by late May. June’s schedule at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and NASA’s Kennedy Space Center remains dominated by SpaceX missions, with Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket delayed indefinitely after a launchpad explosion in May. On **Wednesday, June 3**, a SpaceX Falcon 9 will launch **Starlink 10-43**, deploying 29 broadband satellites into low-Earth orbit from Launch Complex 40 between 4:02 a.m. and 8:02 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Another Falcon 9, **Starlink 10-35**, is set for **Monday, June 8**, with a launch window of 6:07 a.m. to 10:07 a.m., also from Complex 40. A **SpaceX Globalstar 2-R Launch 1** mission remains unscheduled but will use a Falcon 9 from Complex 40 to deploy Globalstar communications satellites. In July, United Launch Alliance will launch an **Atlas V** carrying **Amazon Leo 8** broadband satellites from Complex 41, though exact timing is pending. NASA’s **Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope**, a project with a field of view 100 times larger than Hubble, is set for launch in **early September** atop a SpaceX Falcon Heavy from Pad 39A at Kennedy Space Center. The mission will produce sonic booms during ascent. Live coverage for all launches begins 90 minutes before liftoff on **floridatoday.com/space**, with NASA’s launch coverage starting two hours prior.
