Seven rockets from four countries are scheduled to launch this week. SpaceX's Falcon 9 will fly two classified U.S. Space Force missions. United Launch Alliance's Vulcan will attempt its return-to-flight mission after a nine-month hiatus. Rocket Lab's Electron will reach its 100th mission milestone. China and South Korea will also conduct launches.

Falcon 9 launches USSF-627 on Monday, Nov. 9, at 7:07 PM PST from Space Launch Complex 4 East at Vandenberg Space Force Base. The payload is classified, but indicators suggest a Starshield launch, a government version of Starlink built for the U.S. Space Force, National Reconnaissance Office, and Space Development Agency. Booster B1103 will fly its seventh mission, landing on the droneship Of Course I Still Love You.

South Korea's Mir rocket lifts off Tuesday, Nov. 10, for its first full-scale orbital flight with a second stage. The four-stage solid-fuel vehicle with a liquid-fueled fourth stage is expected to carry around 1,000 kg to low-Earth orbit.

China's Chang Zheng 2D launches Wednesday, Nov. 11, at 11:40 UTC from Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center with an unknown payload. On Thursday, Nov. 12, a Kuaizhou 11 rocket also launches from Jiuquan.

Vulcan lifts off Friday, Nov. 13, at 12:54 PM EST from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. This VC6L variant debuts six solid rocket boosters and a long fairing. The rocket will carry 40 Amazon Leo satellites for Amazon's satellite internet constellation. This is a certification flight for the U.S. Space Force. Vulcan's first stage uses two BE-4 engines fueled by liquid methane and liquid oxygen. The Centaur V second stage uses twin RL10C engines burning liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.

Starship Flight 15 is scheduled no earlier than Friday, Nov. 13, at 4:45 PM CST, pending regulatory approval. Ship 42 and Booster 22 will fly their first missions. The flight will attempt to catch the booster after stage separation and catch the ship approximately 22 hours after liftoff. The mission will deliver 26 Starlink v3 satellites to orbit. Three satellites will carry imaging capability to photograph Starship's heat shield in space.

Falcon 9 flies a second USSF mission, USSF-317, on Friday, Nov. 13, at 8:09 PM PST from Vandenberg. Booster B1100 will fly its 11th mission.

Rocket Lab's Electron launches Saturday, Nov. 14, at 05:30 UTC from New Zealand, delivering an iQPS synthetic aperture radar satellite to orbit.
