2027 in spaceflight

This article documents expected notable spaceflight events during the year 2027.

In 2027, NASA is expected to launch the Artemis III mission, which will send astronauts to low Earth orbit and conduct docking tests with an HLS lander.

The American company Vast plans to launch the first ever commercial space station (Haven-1) in 2027.[1]

The first Indian crewed spaceflight, Gaganyaan-4, is planned for 2027.[2]

China plans to launch the eXTP X-ray observatory.[3]

Orbital launch statistics

By country

For the purposes of this section, the yearly tally of orbital launches by country assigns each flight to the country of origin of the rocket, not to the launch services provider or the spaceport. For example, Soyuz launches by Arianespace in Kourou are counted under Russia because Soyuz-2 is a Russian rocket.
