A Falcon 9 will launch the Hotbird 13G communications satelite for Eutelsat from pad 40 on November TBD. A Falcon 9 from pad 40 will launch the HAKUTO-R lunar lander for iSpace on November TBD. The first stage will land back at the Cape about eight minutes after launch. And a Falcon 9 from pad 39A will launch the Dragon CRS-26 resupply mission to the ISS on November 18 around 4 or 5 p.m. EST.

Jeff Foust @jeff_foust · Oct 17, 2022 · FollowAt the Astrophysics Advisory Committee meeting this morning, NASA says that ESA is exploring options to launch the Euclid mission on a Falcon 9 in mid or late 2023. It was to launch on a Soyuz, which is no longer an option; not many other alternatives for a 2023 launch.Jeff Foust @jeff_foustA feasibility study for launching Euclid on a Falcon 9 is ongoing and should be done by the end of the month.

As part of #Crew7, he will become the first non-US pilot of @SpaceX Crew Dragon!Join us 18 August for the reveal of his mission’s name and patch. #ReadyForFlight
ESA astronaut Andreas Mogensen of Denmark is set to return to the International Space Station for his first long-duration Station mission. With only one year left before his launch in mid-2023, a name for the mission has been chosen: Huginn....Andreas is scheduled to fly on a SpaceX Crew Dragon as part of Crew-7 to the International Space Station, but is also ready as backup pilot for Crew-6.

I think this belongs here now.

USUVL will rideshare on the vehiclewith an unspecified US military spacecraft. USUVL will be injected into super-sync orbit on or about January 9 th 2023 at which time USN will begin S-bandsupport. The spacecraft is inclined at 2.8 degrees as to minimize potentialinterference with other geo spacecraft.
