A Review of SpaceX's Launch Manifest History

For SpaceX, the last year has been a time of struggle and success. After launching six customers into orbit in the first half of 2015, SpaceX faced a second-stage launch failure on its seventh launch. Yet, in less than five months, SpaceX completed its launch contract with Orbcomm by launching OG2–2, and landed the first stage booster back at the Cape just a few miles south.

For 2016, SpaceX has set for itself an agressive launch schedule and the introductory launch of the Falcon Heavy, now expected to fly no earlier than December. The company has so far launched five times and landed three times in the first five months of 2016, and is currently in final preparations to launch their sixth mission of the year this week from Cape Canaveral AFS. Yet, challenges have reared their head.

Two launch customers of SpaceX broke into the news in the opening months of 2016 that they were examining changes to their upcoming SpaceX launches because of delays in SpaceX’s existing launch manifest, which motivate a look at SpaceX’s launch manifest.

Complicating that task, since late November 2014, SpaceX no longer publishes expected launch date windows or payload arrivals at the launch site.

Company President Gwynne Shotwell stated in March 2016 that the company’s launch tempo was set to increase dramatically from previous years. SpaceX’s previously lower launch rate was attributed to settling on a stable design for their Falcon-9 rocket, which has certainly evolved in the six years since its first flight. Between 2010, with the first flight of the Falcon-9 v1.0, and today’s v1.1 “Full Thrust” (FT), the Falcon-9 has grown in its ability to loft payload.

Launcher LEO (kg) GEO (kg) Falcon 9v1.0 13,150 4,850 Falcon 9v1.2 22,800 8,300 % Increase 73% 71%

As the above numbers show, the original Falcon 9 v1.0 could launch 13,150 kg (28,990 lbs) into low-Earth orbit (LEO) and 4,850 kg (10,690 lbs) into geosynchronous-Earth orbit (GEO). Today’s Falcon 9 v1.1 “FT” can loft 22,800 kg (50,265 lbs) into LEO and 8,300 kg (18,300 lbs) into GEO—a 73 percent and 71 percent increase in payload growth over a six-year period.

For commercial launch customers, satellites are a means of satisfying customer needs, generating revenue, and serving existing, or expanding, markets. Getting a company’s satellite in orbit requires contracting the services of a launch provider. In the resulting launch contract, the launch customer pays to get a payload launched on one of the provider’s launch systems at a time, a launch window, all listed on the provider’s launch manifest.

While every customer expects a payload to be launched within the contracted launch window, as with any human endeavour, that does not always happen. Delays in launching a payload can result during development and manufacturing of the payload, from the launch provider not having sufficent launch capacity, or for a number of other reasons. Delays in launching a payload, regardless of the cause, can strongly impact a company’s bottom line, as Orbcomm’s CEO Marc J. Eisenberg made clear in an interview in 2015. With commercial satellite costs starting at the tens of millions, commercial launch customers do not typically store backup capabilities, really satellites, in orbit to take-up the slack of a delayed satellite launch. In today’s Just-In-Time world, doing so would represent an inefficient use of resources on an un-, or under-, used asset depreciating both financially and technologically.

An unmet launch window commitment caused by delays in a launch provider’s system development can force launch customers to seek other avenues for getting their payload into orbit. As the case of Avanti Communications shows, there are costs for a satellite owner associated with changing launch providers. One problem for any launch customer looking to change their ride into orbit is the dearth of available launch slots by other providers.

And then there is cost; any decision to leave SpaceX and pursue another launch provider means a considerably higher launch cost, and the sooner the desired launch the more costly. Avanti Communications’ move in 2010 to drop its launch contract for its Hylas 1 satellite with SpaceX, signed in 2007, for a launch on an Ariane 5 cost Avanti an additional $68 million. SpaceX has never been able to regain Avanti’s business; the latest Avanti Hylas 4 launch contract went to Orbital ATK.

Unmet launch window preconditions can also potentially cost the launch provider more than just a lost customer. In 2012, after SpaceX canceled the Falcon 1e stipulated in Orbcomm’s original September 2009 launch contract with SpaceX, Orbcomm renegotiated its launch contract to penalize any delays by SpaceX or itself in meeting the launch window, originally set for multiple launches in 2010–2014.

Orbcomm got a $4 million reduction from its original launch contract to launch between April 2013 and June 2104. Additionally, added were penalty payments by Orbcomm or SpaceX if either was six months late in the tasks specified in the new contract. While SpaceX did meet its launch commitement by launching the first group of OG2 satellites in June 2014, a 2015 amendment to the 2012 launch contract moved the launch date of the second group of satellites to September 2015. The launch of OG2/2 occured in December 2015.

Delays in the Falcon Heavy program were reported in late February 2016 to have caused ViaSat to move its ViaSat–2 consumer broadband satellite launch, which according to the contract announcement on January 15, 2016, was slated for launch on a Falcon Heavy in 2016, to the Ariane 5 for a launch in the first quarter of 2017.

When contacted, ViaSat indicated to AmericaSpace that the move was necessary to fulfill ViaSat’s customer’s needs in the near-term due to delays in the Falcon Heavy program. ViaSat’s contract for a 2016 Falcon Heavy launch of its ViaSat–2 was renegotiated with SpaceX to a 2019 Falcon Heavy of a ViaSat–3 class satellite. SpaceX took the additional move of reserving another Falcon Heavy for a ViaSat–3 class satellite mission that would follow.

While a near-term loss for SpaceX and gain for Ariane, ViaSat and SpaceX are continuing to work together.

SpaceX’s launch manifest is by any measure ambitious. To date, SpaceX has contracted over 110 Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launches through 2024, with a total of 59 launches contracted through 2016. SpaceX has launched 26 times as of May 27, 2016 (see Table of Launches).

But how has the company’s launch manifest evolved over time since SpaceX first started booking Falcon 9 launch contracts? That is, at least on the surface, a difficult question to answer. It turns out that precious little is known about details of SpaceX’s launch manifest outside the company. But that wasn’t always the case.

Beginning in 2007, SpaceX regularly updated its launch manifest, which listed the customer, year, vehicle, and launch site of upcoming missions. Finding that information today requires going back in time, so to speak, using the Internet Archive’s “Wayback Machine,” which incidentally was recently ruled as a legitimate source of evidence by a Federal Judge. Using “Wayback Machine,” SpaceX’s launch manifest published in 2007 (see Table 1), 2008 (see Table 2), 2009 (see Table 3), 2010 (see Table 4), 2011 (see Table 5), 2012 (see Table 6), 2013 (see Table 7), and 2014 (see Table 8) can be gleened.

The last day that SpaceX organized its launch manifest based on committed launch year was on Nov. 20, 2014. Beginning Nov. 21, 2014, SpaceX no longer displayed launches by year, so additional information is gleened from press releases of new launch customers.

The following is based on an examination of SpaceX’s Falcon 9/Heavy launch manifest published by SpaceX at the beginning of 2007 through late November 2014 and subsequent information from SpaceX.

Launch performance can be analyzed by taking the number of launches manifested for a given year and subtracting the number actual launches (see Table 9, Table 10, Table 11, and Table 12). This is a simplification of the analysis done by ULA for its Manifest Quarterly Report for the first quarter of 2014.

Another visualization shows the extent to which SpaceX’s contracted launches have grown from 2008 onward. As can be seen, the launch frequency of SpaceX has increased steadily since 2012. Missing from the animation are Falcon 9 landings.

To augment its launch capacity currently limited by spaceport availability constraints, SpaceX is working on adding an additional launch facility in south Texas on Boca Chica Beach, near Brownsville, Texas, assisted by funding from the state of Texas’ Spaceport Trust Fund and the Enterprise Fund. The FAA approved 12 annual launches at SpaceX’s South Texas launch site will allow the company to add more launch contracts to its launch manifest while also allowing it to whittle-down any unlaunched payloads. Ground officially broke on the Boca Chica complex in September 2014, and according to the Browsville Herald, as of mid-April, SpaceX is laying dirt, or fill, to stabilize, or supercharge, the ground. SpaceX has stated that launch operations at Boca Chica would begin sometime in 2018.

With a commitment by SpaceX’s President for 13 more launches this year, 2016 will be a seminal year for the company. Having reached a stable design for the Falcon 9, meeting such a launch rate, and launching a returned Falcon 9 first-stage, SpaceX will be both breaking new ground while assuring launch customers of meeting its launch commitments. For the company’s leadership, engineers, technicians, and other employees, 2016 will truly be transitional.
