SpaceX aims to complete up to 100 orbital flights in 2023 as several rocket companies move to bring new launch vehicles into the government and commercial space markets, The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday.

“Falcon 9 now holds the world record for most launches of a single vehicle type in a single year,” SpaceX said in a Dec. 31 tweet. The company noted that on average, it launched missions every six days in 2022.
