🇮🇳 GSLV Mk. II – GISAT-1A (EOS-05)ISRO (Government) — Geostationary Transfer Orbit (GTO) — Earth Science
Satish Dhawan Space Centre Second Launch Pad — Satish Dhawan Space Centre, India
Indian Space Research Organization 🇮🇳 (Government)

GISAT-1A (GEO Imaging Satellite) is an Indian earth observing satellite operating from geostationary orbit to facilitate continuous observation of Indian sub-continent, quick monitoring of natural hazards and disaster.

Q4 2026
Quarter 4
launch status: TBD
🇺🇸 Falcon 9 Block 5 – Inmarsat-7 F1 (GX-7) – SpaceX (Commercial) — Geostationary Transfer Orbit (GTO) — Communications
Unknown Pad — Cape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA

Inmarsat-7 is the seventh generation of satellites for the London-based global mobile satellite communications operator Inmarsat. The three satellites of the series - GX-7, 8 & 9 - will have an improved fully reconfigurable Ka-band payload for Inmarsat's Global Xpress services. They are optimized for real-time mobility and feature thousands of dynamically-formed beams that direct capacity with laser-like precision over high-demand areas, to provide HTS (High Throughput) broadband connectivity for the mobility market.

The satellites will be based on Airbus’ new standard and fully reconfigurable satellite product line OneSat. Fully reconfigurable and featuring on board processing and active antennas, the three Ka-band spacecraft will be able to adjust their coverage, capacity and frequency.
