Upcoming Rocket Launches — Countdowns & Nearest Cameras

Every launch on the world board, in liftoff order: the real NET at the precision the source states it, the pad it flies from, and the closest WorldEye cameras to each site.

This is the standing board the launch stories land on: every upcoming rocket launch Launch Library 2 lists, worldwide, in liftoff order — the mission, the provider, the pad it flies from, and a live countdown. It is the same feed that powers the globe's Space Missions layer, refreshed server-side every fifteen minutes, so the board never waits on your browser to ask a rate-limited source directly.

The times are NETs — No Earlier Than — printed at exactly the precision the source states for each one, in Denver time and UTC. A launch listed to the minute earns a ticking countdown; one listed to the day is a date; one listed to the month is a month, and the countdown beside it runs to that published date and says so. A NET is a plan, not a promise: launches hold, scrub and slip, and this board moves when the source moves — it never invents a time to fill a gap.

Under each launch: the nearest cameras in the WorldEye catalogue to its pad, with their real distances. Read them the way the launch-sites pages state it — the pads are closed federal or company ground, so these are area cameras: the coast roads, the causeways, the towns that watch. They show you the place on launch day; the launch itself is on each card's webcast link, from the provider's own stream, when one is published.

Source: Launch Library 2 · The Space Devs — board data as of Nov 12, 2:47 AM MST (Denver). All times are the published NETs: scheduled, subject to change.

See the pads on the globe

Every pad on this board is pinned on the WorldEye globe: open the live globe and switch on the Space Missions layer (Space & Orbits group) — pads are coloured by their next launch's status, and each pad opens its own upcoming and recent flights. For the one spaceport coast with a real camera wall, see launch sites.

Launch board — FAQ

Where do these launch times come from?+
From Launch Library 2 · The Space Devs, the community-maintained launch database — the same feed behind the globe's Space Missions layer and the /launch-sites board. WorldEye's server polls it on a fifteen-minute cache (its free tier allows only a handful of calls an hour, so no visitor's browser ever calls it directly) and every time on this page is the source's own field, shown at the source's stated precision.
What does NET mean — is the launch guaranteed to happen then?+
NET means No Earlier Than: the earliest liftoff the provider currently plans. It is explicitly not a guarantee. Weather, range availability and the vehicle itself all move NETs — Florida scrubs for weather are a tradition — and some launches are only scheduled to the day or the month, which is how this page prints them. Treat a countdown as the current plan, and expect it to change.
Can I watch a launch itself on the cameras listed here?+
Not the liftoff — no camera in this catalogue stands on a launch pad, because pads are closed ground, and this page will not dress a highway camera up as a pad cam. The listed cameras watch the area around the site: the Space Coast's corridors for a Florida launch, the roads and coast a launch day fills up. For the launch itself, each card links the provider's webcast when one is published — that stream is the launch view.
Why do some launches have no cameras under them?+
Two honest reasons, both printed on the card. Either Launch Library 2 does not publish that pad's coordinates, so there is no point to measure from — or there is no camera in the catalogue within 50 km of the pad, which is true of most spaceports on Earth: they are remote or restricted by design. The board states the gap rather than padding the list with a distant town's grid.
Is the launch board free?+
Yes — the board, the countdowns and the cameras are free on WorldEye, no account, no signup. The same launches also appear on the globe itself: open the Space Missions layer (in the Space & Orbits group) to see every pad pinned, with each pad's own upcoming and recent flights.
