Space Launches API

Every orbital launch in history, plus the live schedule. History comes from GCAT — Jonathan McDowell's authoritative General Catalog (CC BY 4.0): all 7,391 orbital and deep-space launch attempts since Sputnik (tag '1957 ALP', 1957-10-04T19:28:34Z, success), each with launch time, vehicle, flight name, mission, launch site with country, pad, agency and outcome — Apollo 11 is 1969-059, Saturn V from KSC LC39A. Search by mission, vehicle, agency, site, country, year or outcome; aggregate stats by year, vehicle, agency, country or site (2024: 262 launches, 256 successes; Falcon 9's 684 flights lead all-time; its 2024 record: 131 successes). The upcoming side syncs twice daily from Launch Library 2 (The Space Devs): the next ~100 launches plus the last 100, with provider, rocket, mission, orbit, pad, status and image — ask /launches/next and get the next liftoff on Earth with its countdown timestamp. Space content apps, countdown widgets, news tooling, dashboards, trivia and education — 68 years of spaceflight plus what launches tonight, in one API.
