Florida’s Space Coast Launches Continue to Soar
June 16, 2025 – Here’s a great statistic that was part of a very comprehensive story in Florida Today that looks at space launches since the Space Shuttle retired in 2011:
In 2011 there were 10 orbital launches carrying about 95,334 pounds of payload into orbit.
In 2024, there were 93 launches delivering more than 2.74 million pounds of payload, about 29 times the number in 2011.
According to the article: “Space Launch Delta 45 now projects 107 rockets will launch during 2025. Looking ahead, Federal Aviation Administration officials are collecting public comment on SpaceX’s proposal to boost Falcon rocket launches up to 120 per year just from Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.”
What an amazing time to live on Florida’s Space Coast. Want to see a launch? You won’t have to wait long.
