The global space launch infrastructure base has expanded alongside the rise of commercial reusable launch vehicles and the small-satellite constellation boom, with new commercial spaceports being developed to relieve capacity constraints at legacy government-operated launch ranges.
The database tracks launch pad-level detail including operator, supported launch vehicle families, achievable orbital inclinations, and historical launch cadence, alongside announced new spaceport developments intended to support next-generation heavy-lift and small-launch vehicle programs.
The Global Space Launch Facilities Database is developed using a structured, multi-source research process designed to ensure accuracy and consistency across every tracked record.
The research team defines the full universe of space launch facilities to be tracked within scope, drawing on regulatory filings, industry association membership lists, company disclosures, and prior desk research to establish an initial master list.
Each record is populated using primary sources including company announcements, regulatory and permitting filings, government databases, and, where available, direct outreach to operators and developers, cross-checked against secondary sources such as industry reports and trade press coverage.
Records are standardized into a consistent schema covering location, capacity or scale, ownership, operational status, and timeline detail, allowing like-for-like comparison across all covered countries and regions.
The database is reviewed on a periodic basis to reflect newly announced projects, status changes, and ownership updates, with the 2026 reference year reflecting the most recent verified data snapshot at time of publication.
It covers orbital launch sites operated by government space agencies and commercial launch providers worldwide, including facilities under development.
Records include operator, supported vehicle classes, achievable orbital inclinations, and historical launch cadence where available.
