Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Project Janus at Capitol Technology University plans to fly two iridium SBD modems and Raspberry Pi computers into a sub-orbital altitude. The experiment is designed to see if two Iridium satellite modems can communicate in tandem from two separate payloads. Since this gear will fly above 70km for (5-min), an STA is requested for this flight.

Purpose of Operation
The experiment is designed to see if two Iridium satellite modems can communicate in tandem from two separate payloads. The equipment will work on 1616-1625Mhz (typical of Iridium L-band). The launch date of the sub-orbital rocket from NASA is scheduled for lift-off in the month of August 2018, the entire flight will last 15 minutes. With 5 minutes of communication at apogee above 70Km. The launch is via the ROCKSAT-X program from Colorado Space Grant Consortium and Wallops Flight Facility (NASA). Launch date is determined by Wallops Flight Facility (NASA) and maybe subject to change.

Requested Period of Operation
Operation Start Date:   08/11/2018
Operation End Date:   08/15/2018

Andoya Space Center: CASPER-2 & G-CHASER
have been launched Jan. 4 & Jan. 13 2019.
Both part of the CUSP GCI project. (4/9 missions ; 6/12 rockets completed)
CUSP GCI missions left to launch:
- AZURE  2x BBXI (51.001 & 51.002) ASC Apr. 2019
- ICI-5  (? IM: Improved Malemute) SvB (Ny-Alesund, Svalbard) Jan. or Dec. 2019
- C-REX-2  BB XII  ASC  Nov/Dec. 2019
- CHI  BB IX  SvB  Nov/Dec. 2019
- JAXA  SS-520 Svb  Jan.2020

Also finally a update from SSC (Esrange Space Center) DIRECT LINK
Lots of TBD launches again. (hopefully it doesn't go like last year) Four Six decided launch missions:
- REXUS 25/26  2x Imp. Orion (IO) (and possibly REXUS 23) Feb./March 2019
- SARA 4 (PERSEUS Student rocket, France) April 2019
- ATEK/MAPHEUS-8  IM/VS-30 May/June 2019 (I wonder; is this a Imp.Malemute staging to a S-30 or vice-versa)
- MASER 14  VSB-30  June/July 2019
- SPIDER 2 IM (Improved Malemute) Jan/Feb. 2020
- REXUS 27/28  2x Imp. Orion March 2020
I think the STERN DLR Student launches are note worthy:
Three launch opportunities: 2019 (Okt./Nov); 2020-1 (March) & 2020-2 (June/July 2020)

DLR MORABA also is planning to introduce two new Sounding rockets:
- IM/IO : Improved Malemute | Imp. Orion
- IM/IM : Imp. Malemute | Imp. Malemute  used for MAPHEUS-10, -11 &-12

I expected more launches from Andoya than from Esrange this year, but I'm happy to be wrong.

Let's also include the PLDspace MIURA-1  sounding rocket that should have it's maiden launch Q3 or Q4 2019 from CEDEA Spain.
I'll leave it with this. ...

France will launch an Arès 23 NG sounding rocket from Kourou ALFS in "few months". Will be the first flight from ALFS in more than 40 years.

SSC Esrange updated their launch schedule today. can de downloaded here
file: SSC Launch program 27 May 2020

The launch schedule: for 2020.
July/Aug. 2020 STERN 2020-1 (DLR student rocket)
Aug. 2020    Bolt-1 S31-Imp. Orion rocket
Sept./Okt. 2020  REXUS 27/28 (DLR/SSC Student experiments) 2x Imp. Orion
Okt./Nov. 2020  STERN 2020-2 (DLR student rocket)
Okt./Nov. 2020  Mapheus-9/10 2x IM/IM (IM = Imp. Malemute)
Dec. 2020  STORT SF1&2  2x Imp. Orion

That's the current schedule, but weather and Covid-19 could alter it.

And according to the DLR Raumfahrtkalender;
there is a 2th PMWE launch mission from Andoya between 1 and 15 Okt. 2020.
If I'm not mistaken, the PMWE (Polar Mesosphere Winter Echoes) use two imp. Malemute rockets.

And I found out that Euro Space Technology now builds the Mongoose 98 / CaNoRock. It launched in February from Andoya.

The bluShift Aerospace company (https://www.blushiftaerospace.com/) is planning to have the first launch of its sounding rocket Stardust 1.0 today, with a 2-3 pm EST launch window. There's a live webcast on youtube at
and I think they'll be also live on Twitter.

I couldn't find anything about them on the forum and since I'm quite new here I dont't know how this should be handled, where to post updates or whether this company/launch reuires a new thread.

The ground test session and launches will take place at Spaceport America in Truth or Consequences, NM with a tentative schedule of July, August, and October 2021. The vehicle is expected to reach an apogee of approximately 100 km, and will be recovered within White Sands Missile Range, NM.

Andoya Space: Hazard area notification:
Quote
Andøya Space announces the establishment of hazard areas at sea northwest of Andenes. In the scientific research project PMWE 3-4 we will conduct up to nine rocket launches.
The launch operations will take place some time between September 30th and October 15th, 2021, 08:00 and 15:00 local time. ...

Here's an article on the launches. The project name is Polar Mesosphere Winter Echoes (PMWE).

"Think shooting stars contribute to rare 'echo' - launches nine rockets to explore

Now several rockets are being launched from Andøya in the hope of finding out a particular phenomenon high above the ground."

Have any of them launched yet? Can't find too much on it.

Here we have a countdown clock for the first Deimos-One "Vulcan" suborbital launch:

https://deimosone.com/vehicles/vulcan/

Counting towards November 12, 2021, 07:00 UTC . Launching from Nevada, I assume.

Edit: I miscalculated the time zone, and there is something wrong with the clock. It now counts towards the odd time 11:52 pm on November 12. Probably Southern Nevada local time (MT), but they won't launch in the night. Was something like noon yesterday.

Quote
In 2021, Deimos-One will launch a new space capsule into outer space, powering our ability to fly reusable payloads and humans into space using American made vehicles. Eventually, our reusable suborbital rocket system will take astronauts and research payloads past the Kármán line into Earth orbit and beyond, offering every human on our planet the experience of a lifetime.
