Falcon 9 Block 5 | TRACERS
SpaceX | United States of AmericaVandenberg SFB, CA, USA
TBD September, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
NASA's Tandem Reconnection and Cusp Electrodynamics Reconnaissance Satellites (TRACERS) mission, consisting of two identical satellites that will orbit Earth in tandem (one following the other), will help understand magnetic re-connection and its effects in Earth’s atmosphere. Magnetic re-connection occurs when activity from the Sun interacts with Earth’s magnetic field. By understanding this process, scientists will be able to better understand and prepare for impacts of solar activity on Earth.

Falcon 9 Block 5 | TSIS-2
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD October, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
The Total and Spectral Solar Irradiance Sensor 2 (TSIS-2) is a satellite designed by NASA to measure the Sun's energy input to Earth. TSIS-2 comprises two instruments, the Total Irradiance Monitor (TIM), and the spectral Irradiance Monitor (SIM). TIM measures total brightness and SIM measures spectral irradiance over a wavelength range that includes 96% of the energy in the solar spectrum. Both instruments are similar to those used for the TSIS-1 mission onboard the International Space Station.
Sun-Synchronous OrbitFalcon 9 Block 5 | Transporter 15 (Dedicated SSO Rideshare)
SpaceX | United States of AmericaVandenberg SFB, CA, USA
TBD October, 2025
Falcon 9 Block 5 | IMAP & others
SpaceX | United States of AmericaKennedy Space Center, FL, USA
TBD December, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe) is a NASA mission to study interactions between solar wind and local interstellar medium. Carrying a suite of 10 scientific instruments, IMAP is able to investigate how particles are accelerated, determine their composition, as well as help to advance space weather forecasting models. IMAP launch also includes several secondary payloads from NASA, which are: a small lunar orbiter called Lunar Trailblazer, space weather satellite SWFO-L1, GLIDE mission to study far ultraviolet emission in exosphere and a solar sail mission Solar Cruiser.

Falcon 9 Block 5 | CAS500-2 & CAS500-4
SpaceX | United States of AmericaVandenberg SFB, CA, USA
TBD December, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
CAS500-2 is the second of two similar South Korean Earth observation satellites. These spacecraft feature the AEISS-C imaging system with a ground resolution of 0.5 m in panchromatic mode and 2 m in color mode. CAS500-4 is a wide area Earth-observation satellite with a wide-area electro-optical camera (swath width of 120 km and resolution of 5 m) to be mainly used by the Rural Development Administration and the Korea Forest Service for observing crops, agricultural water resources and forest resources.
