The next space launch, retrieved from our Launch Library 2 API, is Falcon 9 Block 5 | Nova-C IM-2 & Lunar Trailblazer. It is scheduled to be launched by SpaceX from Launch Complex 39A, Kennedy Space Center, FL, USA at 2025-02-27 00:16:30 UTC. Until then, this pad will have been used for 199 out of 257 launches from this location. The launch status is currently Go 🟩 . The mission type is Lunar Exploration and the payload will be injected into a Lunar Orbit (LO).

This is the second mission of Nova-C lunar lander developed and built by Intuitive Machines. This time it carries a NASA payload called PRIME-1 (Polar Resources Ice Mining Experiment-1), which is to be the first demonstration of in-situ resource utilization on the Moon. PRIME-1 consists of two instruments: TRIDENT drill and Msolo mass spectrometer.
