Understanding Satellite Launches
Satellites launched measures the number of objects sent into Earth orbit annually. Approximately 3,000 satellites are launched per year. Our space counter tracksannual launches, Starlink satellites, and active satellites in orbit.
Also known as space launches, orbital deployments, and satellite missions, this metric is closely related to SpaceX, space industry, and satellite internet.
Our satellite data covers multiple dimensions including by operator, by type (commercial, military, research), over time, and by orbit.
