BlockBeats report: On June 20, the total mass launched into space globally in the first quarter of 2026 was approximately 647,000 kilograms, representing an 18% year-over-year increase. SpaceX led with 556,000 kilograms—more than thirteen times that of the second-place company—accounting for approximately 86% of global launch capacity.
Musk commented: "Once Starship achieves one launch per hour, SpaceX's mass to orbit will be about 100 times that of all other operators combined, even if they triple their current launch rates."
Starship has not yet entered high-frequency commercial operations, but SpaceX has already established a dominant advantage with its Falcon series. Analysts note that once Starship achieves large-scale deployment, it will bring about a historic reshaping of the global space industry.
