Launch Schedule by: SafetyAgentMan (M/Aptos, CA) 4956 of 4960 Two launches from the cape within 4 days in June. I am tempted to make a trip to Florida. The following is an updated launch schedule for 1999.
April 5, Orion-F3 on Boeing Delta 3, Cape Canaveral
April 15, third Globalstar mission on Soyuz, Kazakhstan
Late April or early May, fourth Globalstar mission on Soyuz, Kazakhstan
June 11, third Globalstar mission on Boeing Delta 2, Cape Canaveral
June 15, Telstar 7 on Atlas IIIA, Cape Canaveral
August/September ??, Orion 2 on Arianespace Ariane 4, Kourou
July 1, fourth Globalstar mission on Boeing Delta 2, Cape Canaveral
August 9, fifth Globalstar mission on Boeing Delta 2, Cape Canaveral
September, fifth Globalstar mission on Soyuz, Kazakhstan
September 30, sixth Globalstar mission on Boeing Delta 2, Vandenberg

NOTE: Space Systems/Loral which heads the international consortium which builds the Globalstars and which is the leading shareholder in the Globalstar company, says that nine more launches are planned in 1999, on Delta II and Soyuz boosters. An Ariane 4 launch of Globalstars scheduled for September may therefore be pushed into 2000.
