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.
A report from astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell says the figure would reflect a 64 percent increase from SpaceX’s 61 launch missions in 2022.
“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.
A spokeswoman for the joint venture of Boeing (NYSE: BA) and Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) said ULA plans to launch its vehicle, Vulcan Centaur, on its maiden flight in the first quarter of the year.
