| 2026 - Launches to Orbit and Beyond
Listed are launches, irrespective of outcome, that were irretrievably committed to flight towards orbit or intended to accelerate the payload to escape velocity. The following notes should help with understanding the launch lists.
Launch times are in UTC and are either from the launching agency or estimated by 'walking back' along the ground track to the launch site.
Most orbit data and decay information comes from SpaceTrack. The Space-Track data occasionally contains inconsistencies (eg - incorrect re-entry dates or early sets of elements allocated to the wrong object) that need to be corrected from other sources.
To fill the gaps where elements are not formally published, usually because they have a classification of "Secret", some orbits are based on amateur observations. Such data is published near-daily by Mike McCants. Occasionally, orbits are estimated by myself from public data.
Space-Track sometimes has insufficient information to allocate names to objects in its catalogue. In these cases, names are derived from public information.
Apogee and perigee are measured against a spherical Earth with a radius of 6378.145 km, assumed to be situated at the focus of the orbital ellipse. The value for the orbital period is the Anomalistic Period, or time to complete one circuit of the ellipse. It is not the same as the time taken to complete one circuit of the Earth. Care should be exercised when comparing Orbital Focus data with other published orbits because they may have been derived using a different model.

| Launched cluster of satellites. Released 023A on reaching orbit, then raised orbit to a non sun-synchronous 500 km where it released 023B - 023E at around 21:00 UTC. Used a single firing to move the RA of the Ascending Node to the east by 2.5 degrees without changing the inclination where it released 023F - 023J at around 23:00 UTC. Following retro-fire February 6 at around 01:05 UTC, re-entered above the Indian Ocean south of Australia at about 01:45 UTC. |

| 3U? Cubesat? - reportedly carrying space radiation detectors. Transmissions were detected in an amateur radio band but ceased after about two and a half days. No unexplained object was reported by Space-Track so the most likely scenario is that this payload was attached to one of the Rassvet satellites or the Soyuz upper stage. The orbit listed is an estimate based on reported amateur observations of the radio signal. |

| Lunar fly-by mission carring crew consisting of NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman (commander), Victor Glover (pilot), Christina Koch (mission specialist), and Jeremy Hansen (mission specialist) of the Canadian Space Agency. Separated from launch vehicle April 2 at 01:57 UTC. A six minute firing of the Service Propulsion System April 2 at 23:49 UTC placed Artemis in barycentric orbit and on a trajectory to meet the Moon. A further mid course engine firing was made April 5 and Artemis passed behind the Moon, as viewed from Earth, on April 6. Splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off California April 11 at 00:07 UTC. The first orbit listed is an estimate based on NASA information. |

| 3U Cubesat built as a demonstrator for a “multifunctional” membrane panel about 1.5m square and deployed from a 1m mast . Thin-film devices attached throughout the membrane will demonstrate designs for low-mass array aerials and solar arrays. The structure acted as an air brake resulting in relatively-rapid orbit decay and a relatively-short orbit life compared with other satellites from the launch. |
