Any idea why there appears to be a gap in launches? After Telstar 18 on 08-23 the next launch is 5 weeks later on 09-29 and then nothing with a firm date attached.Could this be related to installing the crew access arm?

After GPS-III 1 launches on December 18, SpaceX will have launched 21 missions, so it's safe to say that only 1.3% of the voters on this poll were right.
Well it's official. 21 is the answer.
And the answer is.... (drum roll)26Numerically, 26.4 +/-5.2(Best fit Gaussian mean and moment)Pretty close to my guess of 27.YMMVLast year the consensus was 13.7 +/- 5.2, so the 18 launches was significantly higher. Once again, the consensus forms within the first few days and the first fraction of the total votes and never moves significantly.
