    Atlas V launches GSSAP-5 and GSSAP-6

    Jan 21, 2022

    A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 511 rocket launched the USSF-8 mission, two identical Geosynchronous Space Situational Awareness Program (GSSAP) satellites - GSSAP-5 and GSSAP-6 - for the U.S. Space Force, from Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida, on 21 January 2022, at 19:00 UTC (14:00 EST). This is the 102nd mission for an Atlas V launch vehicle and the first and only planned flight of the Atlas V 511 configuration, the two-stage rocket with a single solid rocket booster.

    Atlas V launches GOES-T

    Mar 1, 2022

    A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 541 launch vehicle launched the GOES-T satellite to an optimized geosynchronous transfer orbit from Space Launch Complex 41 (SLC-41) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida, on 1 March 2022, at 21:38 UTC (16:38 EST). The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite - T (GOES-T) will provide NASA and NOAA with continuous imagery and atmospheric measurements of Earth’s Western Hemisphere, lightning detection and mapping, solar imaging and space weather monitoring. Upon reaching geostationary orbit, the satellite will be renamed GOES-18.

    Atlas V launches USSF-12

    Jul 2, 2022

    A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 541 launch vehicle launched the USSF-12 mission directly to geosynchronous orbit, from Space Launch Complex 41 (SLC-41) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida, on 1 July 2022, at 23:15 UTC (19:15 EDT). The USSF-12 mission for the U.S. Space Force’s Space Systems Command (SSC) has two satellite payloads: the Wide Field of View (WFOV) Testbed for SSC's Space Sensing Directorate and the USSF-12 Ring spacecraft for the Defense Department’s Space Test Program. Atlas V will deliver both spacecraft directly to geosynchronous orbit approximately 35,500 km (22,000 miles) above the equator approximately 6 hours after liftoff.

    Atlas V launches SBIRS GEO-6

    Aug 4, 2022

    A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 421 launch vehicle launched SBIRS GEO Flight 6 to a geosynchronous transfer orbit, from Space Launch Complex-41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida, on 4 August 2022, at 10:29 UTC (06:29 EDT). SBIRS GEO Flight 6 is the sixth and final Space Based Infrared System Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (SBIRS GEO 6) spacecraft for the U.S. Space Force’s Space Systems Command (SSC).

    Atlas V launches SES-20 and SES-21

    Oct 5, 2022

    A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 531 launch vehicle launched the SES-20 and SES-21 satellites into near-geosynchronous orbit, from Space Launch Complex-41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida, on 4 October 2022, at 21:36 UTC (17:36 EDT). SES-20 and SES-21 are all-electric 702SP (small platform) satellites equipped with C-band payloads that will operate to provide television broadcasting services across the United States.

    Atlas V launches JPSS-2 and LOFTID

    Nov 10, 2022

    A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 401 launch vehicle launched the Joint Polar Satellite System - 2 (JPSS-2) and the Low-Earth Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator (LOFTID) from Space Launch Complex-3 at Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, on 10 November 2022, at 09:49 UTC (01:49 PST, 04:49 EST). JPSS-2, which will be renamed NOAA-21 after reaching orbit, is the latest generation of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA’s) polar-orbiting environmental satellites, designed to capture data to inform weather forecasts, helping scientists predict and prepare for extreme weather events. NASA’s Low-Earth Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator, or LOFTID, is demonstrating a cross-cutting aeroshell for atmospheric re-entry.

    Atlas V launches NROL-107 / SILENTBARKER

    Sep 10, 2023

    A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 551 launch vehicle launched the SILENTBARKER/NROL-107 mission, from Space Launch Complex 41 (SLC-41) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida, on 10 September 2023, at 12:47 UTC (08:47 EDT). According to ULA, SILENTBARKER/NROL-107 is “a joint National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) and U.S. Space Force (USSF) capability to improve space domain awareness”.
