πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Vulcan VC4S – USSF-87ULA (Commercial) — Geostationary Orbit (Direct-GEO) — Government/Top Secret
Space Launch Complex 41 — Cape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
United States Space Force πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ (Government)

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.
