The above schedule is a composite of unclassified information

approved for public release from government, industry, and other

sources. It represents the Editor's best effort to produce a schedule,

but may disagree with other sources. Details on military launches are

withheld until they are approved for public release. For official

information regarding Vandenberg SFB activities, go to

All launch dates and times are given in Pacific Time using a 24-hour

format similar to military time (midnight = 00:00, 1:00 p.m. = 13:00,

11:00 p.m. = 23:00, etc.).

 

The dates and times in this schedule may not agree with those on other

online launch schedules, including the official Vandenberg SFB

schedule because different sources were used, the information was

interpreted differently, and the schedules were updated at different

times.
