📝 Mission Description

This Vulcan launch carries the Vulcan | USSF-87 mission, scheduled for March 31, 2026. The mission aims to deliver important payloads to orbit, contributing to our understanding of space and advancing technological capabilities.

ℹ️ Official Details

USSF-87 will launch two identical Geosynchronous Space Situational Awareness Program (GSSAP) satellites GSSAP-7 and GSSAP-8 directly to a near-geosynchronous orbit approximately 36,000 km above the equator.

Data from the GSSAP will uniquely contribute to timely and accurate orbital predictions, further enabling space flight safety including satellite collision avoidance.
