About This Dataset

Most-Launched Rockets of 2025
Orbital launches flown by each rocket type in 2025, counting attempts rather than successes. Variants of one family are listed separately where they carry their own designation, so the individual Long March numbers appear on their own lines instead of as a single entry.
Analysis

Falcon 9 flew 165 times in 2025, 50.0% of the 330 orbital launches attempted worldwide and 9.2 times as often as Electron on 18.
