We have a packed week in rocket launches coming up. Of note is the launch of Space Pioneer's Tianlong 2 rocket which will be launching for the first time carrying CubeSat satellites.
There are several launches planned for this week. Among them is a private mission to the Moon that was originally scheduled for last week but got delayed. There's also a recap of this week's launches.
Next week, South Korea is due to test its Nuri rocket by launching a mock satellite. The Nuri satellite aims to be one of the cheapest satellite launch vehicles in Asia at $30 million per launch.
There aren't too many launches this week but SpaceX is prepping its next Starship mission where it will attempt to perfect the landing procedure so it can move on in the testing process.
The next week will feature an interesting launch from Blue Origin, the firm owned by Amazon's Jeff Bezos. Astronauts will practice getting aboard the craft ready for a crewed mission in the future.
