Comparison of orbital launch systems

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Falcon 9 Block 5, the most prolific active orbital launch system in the world.

Thiscomparison of orbital launch systems lists the attributes of all current and future individual rocket configurations designed to reach orbit. A first list contains rockets that are operational or have attempted an orbital flight attempt as of 2026; a second list includes all upcoming rockets. For the simple list of all conventional launcher families, see:Comparison of orbital launchers families. For the list of predominantly solid-fueled orbital launch systems, see:Comparison of solid-fueled orbital launch systems.

Background

[edit]

Spacecraft propulsion[note 1] is anymethod used to acceleratespacecraft and artificialsatellites.Orbitallaunch systems are rockets andother systems capable of placingpayloads into orbeyondEarth orbit. All launch vehicle propulsion systems employed to date have beenchemical rockets falling into one of three main categories:

  • Solid-propellant rockets or solid-fuel rockets have a motor that usessolid propellants, typically a mix of powderedfuel andoxidizer held together by apolymer binder and molded into the shape of a hollow cylinder. The cylinder is ignited from the inside and burns radially outward, with the resulting expanding gases and aerosols escaping out via the nozzle.[note 2]
  • Liquid-propellant rockets have a motor that feeds liquid propellant(s) into a combustion chamber. Most liquid engines use abipropellant, consisting of two liquid propellants (fuel and oxidizer) which are stored and handled separately before being mixed and burned inside the combustion chamber.
  • Hybrid-propellant rockets use a combination of solid and liquid propellant, typically involving a liquid oxidizer being pumped through a hollow cylinder of solid fuel.

All current spacecraft use conventional chemical rockets (solid-fuel or liquid bipropellant) for launch, though some[note 3] have usedair-breathing engines on theirfirst stage.[note 4]

The following chart shows the number of launch systems developed in each country, and broken down by operational status. Rocket variants are not distinguished; i.e., theAtlas V series is only counted once for all its configurations 401–431, 501–551, 552, and N22.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^There are many different methods. Each method has drawbacks and advantages, and spacecraft propulsion is an active area of research. However, most spacecraft today are propelled by forcing a gas from the back/rear of the vehicle at very high speed through asupersonic de Laval nozzle. This sort ofengine is called arocket engine.
  2. ^The first medieval rockets were solid-fuel rockets powered by gunpowder; they were used by the Chinese, Indians, Mongols and Arabs, in warfare as early as the 13th century.
  3. ^Such as thePegasus rocket andSpaceShipOne.
  4. ^Most satellites have simple reliable chemical thrusters (oftenmonopropellant rockets) orresistojet rockets fororbital station-keeping and some usemomentum wheels forattitude control. Soviet bloc satellites have usedelectric propulsion for decades, and newer Western geo-orbiting spacecraft are starting to use them for north–south stationkeeping and orbit raising. Interplanetary vehicles mostly use chemical rockets as well, although a few have usedion thrusters andHall effect thrusters (two different types of electric propulsion) to great success.
