Launch record · 6,946 launches
Every launch that left at least one catalogued object in orbit, grouped by international designator. Counts of payloads, rocket bodies and debris are taken from the live catalogue, so "on orbit" changes as objects decay.
Launches per year by launch-site region
6,946 launches · 27,718 payloads since 1957
Monthly cadence · last 36 months
208 launches in 2026
Launches are derived: SatelliteIndex groups catalogued objects by the launch part of their COSPAR international designator (e.g. 1998-067) and takes the earliest launch date and the launch site from SATCAT. Launches that placed nothing in the catalogue (failures below orbit, suborbital flights) do not appear. Region split uses the launch-site country. See the methodology.
The last bar is the current month (partial).
