2021 in spaceflight
This article documents expected notable spaceflight events during the year 2021.
The James Webb Space Telescope is set to launch aboard an Ariane 5 rocket in 2021. | |
Overview
Three spaceflights to the Moon are planned to take place in 2021. As part of NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services program, commercial landers developed by Astrobotic Technology and Intuitive Machines will both be launched, and Russia will resume its Luna-Glob exploration programme with the Luna 25 lander. NASA plans a return to the Moon sometime in the 2020s, and following that a human mission to Mars in the mid 2030s.
The long-delayed James Webb Space Telescope, the largest space telescope ever built, will be launched to the Sun–Earth L2 point by a European Ariane 5 rocket in March.[1]
The trend towards cost reduction in access to orbit is expected to continue. United Launch Alliance plans to debut their Vulcan rocket, which was designed to gradually replace Atlas V at lower costs.[2] Blue Origin plans to launch its first orbital-class New Glenn rocket with a reusable first stage.[3] Northrop Grumman plans to carry out the maiden launch of the Omega launch vehicle.[4] SpaceX plans the first commercial flight of the fully reusable Starship.[5]
The first Indian crewed spaceflight, Gaganyaan, is planned for December 2021.

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.
