The Space Force’s 45th Space Wing was redesignated Space Launch Delta 45 last month as part of a reorganization of units operating under the umbrella of the nation’s newest military service.
The launch rate to start 2021 is a record for orbital missions from Cape Canaveral. The cadence has largely been driven by SpaceX’s rapid deployment of Starlink internet satellites.
A spokesperson for Space Launch Delta 45 said they currently expect 47 launches on the Eastern Range this calendar year. In January, range officials predicted 53 launches this year from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and the neighboring Kennedy Space Center.
There were 31 rocket launches from the Florida spaceport in 2020, including 30 orbital missions and one high-altitude test flight of SpaceX’s Crew Dragon capsule. The 30 space missions launched from Florida last year broke the previous record of 29 successful orbital launches set in 1966.
The Space Force has started initiatives to make the Eastern Range more nimble as commercial users drive up the launch rate. Range officials have said they want to make the ground infrastructure at Cape Canaveral more automated and more responsive to rocket companies.

Ahhh, Florida, the place to be!

Hi.
A PSA...
If you live in a blue state or city, don’t come to Florida unless you are a Conservative. We may allow the libertarians to come to Free Florida, but that’s above my pay grade.
Any liberal progressive socialist who comes to FL to change it into a blue state gulag, will be shot.
End PSA

End PSA addendum.
