The launch coast and the Eastern Range

The Brevard County territory covers Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Kennedy Space Center and Patrick Space Force Base. The statute names all three in subsection (1) and provides that the territory within Kennedy and the Cape station may be referred to as the Cape Canaveral Spaceport; Patrick is in the subsection but outside that name [FS331304]. The Space Coast hub region carries 63 of the 94 nodes on this map, and 38 of its 218 edge endpoints reach outside the region.

The Eastern Range recorded 93 launches in 2024, an official Space Force figure, and more than 100 in 2025 [USSF45] [SN100]. Spaceport of the Future is the range modernization program behind that cadence, with $1.3 billion approved through 2028; it carries an announced entity status because the money is programmed rather than spent [SLD4594].

The pads and complexes

Status key. Each range node carries one cutoff status: operating; under repair; under development; inactive, disposition unverified; announced redevelopment; or retired, historic site. The detail column states what the record shows at the cutoff.

The operators and the vehicles

Status key. Each provider and vehicle carries one cutoff status: operating; operating, final manifest; operating company with launches suspended; previously operating vehicle, grounded; under development; announced for Florida; or exited the launch market. Company statuses describe the operator and vehicle statuses describe the vehicle.

The historic programs before the commercial era

Mercury, Gemini, Apollo and the Space Shuttle are on the map because each has a documented link to a pad, a building or a contractor that still carries a line into the present: Launch Complex 14 now leased to Stoke Space, Launch Complex 36 rebuilt by Blue Origin, Pad 39A held by SpaceX, the Vehicle Assembly Building that now serves the Space Launch System, the Shuttle Landing Facility now run by the state authority, and the RL10 engine whose first flight on Atlas Centaur in 1963 runs through to Vulcan. Each historic node carries the evidence class historic or successor and a cutoff status of retired. The mission programs are mapped, not every mission or launch vehicle variant.
