**Cape Canaveral, FL** – Florida’s Space Coast had a record-breaking January, hosting 10 orbital rocket launches. This impressive feat surpasses the previous year’s total of 93 launches and suggests a potentially record-shattering year for 2025.
The intense launch activity, primarily driven by SpaceX Starlink missions and the upcoming NASA-SpaceX Intuitive Machines moon lander mission, shows no signs of slowing down. February is expected to be equally busy at both Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
