Upcoming rocket launches

Times in Pacific/Honolulu. Dates move often; “NET” means no earlier than.

Data from The Space Devs Launch Library 2.

Asteroids passing Earth, next 60 days

Every known object coming within 0.05 au (about 19 times the Moon’s distance). None of these is on a collision course.
