The future of space in 2025

On New Year’s Eve, a Falcon 9 rocket brought to a close the most prolific year ever for launches here. The 93 rocket launches that took off in 2024 shattered 2023′s record of 72. A brand-new rocket was one of the first launches of the year in 2024 (ULA’s Vulcan Centaur), and it now looks like the same could be true for 2025. An aerospace advisory from the FAA suggests Blue Origin’s New Glenn could make its flight debut on Florida’s Space Coast as soon as Monday.
