The rocket parameter is used to display the full name of the rocket body and variant used on the flight. A number of rocket bodies come in many variants.

Suggested values

Ariane 1 Ariane 2 Ariane 3 Ariane 40 Ariane 42L Ariane 42P Ariane 44L Ariane 44P Ariane 44 LP Ariane 5G Ariane 5G+ Ariane 5 GS Ariane 5 ES Ariane 5 ECA Ariane 5 ECA+ Ariane 62 Ariane 64 Atlas V 401 Atlas V 411 Atlas V 421 Atlas V 431 Atlas V 501 Atlas V 521 Atlas V 531 Atlas V 541 Atlas V 551 Atlas V N22 Delta II Delta III Delta IV Medium Delta IV M+ (4,2) Delta IV M+ (5,2) Delta IV M+ (5,4) Delta Heavy Falcon 1 Falcon 9 v1.0 Falcon 9 v1.1 Falcon 9 Full Thrust Falcon 9 Block 4 Falcon 9 Block 5 Falcon Heavy PSLV-G PSLV-CA PSLV-XL PSLV-DL PSLV-QL Soyuz Soyuz-L Soyuz-M Soyuz-U Soyuz-U2 Soyuz-FG Soyuz-2.1a Soyuz-2.1b Soyuz-2.1v Soyuz-ST-A Soyuz-ST-B Vega Vega C Vega E

The name parameter is used to input the official name of the flight as determined by the operator of the flight. A citation for this name is highly encouraged to be used in the article prose. If there is no official unique name for the launch, use a compound of the rocket body flown and the chronological number of the flight. For example, the 20th flight of the Falcon 9 rocket body should be titled as "Falcon 9 flight 20".

Image of the mission, preferably an image of the launch or of the vehicle in space. Do not use generic launch kit covers which only display logos or stock rocket launch photographs from a launch different than the one being described in the article.

Used to display the date and time of T-0. The "Launch" cell is to be used when the launch has occurred and a specific launch date and time has been cited in the article prose. The preferred input format is the date of the launch using {{Start date}}, followed by the time of the launch in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), separated by a comma.

Default

{{Start date|YYYY|MM|DD|df=yes}}, HH:MM:SS{{nbsp}}[[UTC]]

Example

{{Start date|2018|10|20|df=yes}}, 01:45:28{{nbsp}}[[UTC]]

Used to display the date and time of T-0. The "Window" cell is to be used when the launch date is in the future and the planned date and time is cited in the article prose. The preferred input format is the date of the launch using {{Start date}}, followed by the time of the launch in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), separated by a comma. Will never appear at the same time as the "launch" parameter in a single infobox, effectively preventing the parameters' misuse to display the specific window of the launch, even after the launch has already occurred and an exact launch date and time is cited in the article prose.

Default

{{Start date|YYYY|MM|DD|df=yes}}, HH:MM:SS{{nbsp}}[[UTC]]

Example

{{Start date|2018|10|20|df=yes}}, 01:45:28{{nbsp}}[[UTC]]

Used to display the operator of the flight. For example, this would be SpaceX for Falcon 9 launches, or United Launch Alliance for Atlas V and Delta IV launches.

Used to display the common name of the launch site followed by the codename for the launch pad from which the flight was launched.

Example

[[Vandenberg Space Force Base|Vandenberg]], [[Vandenberg Space Launch Complex 3|SLC-3]]

Used to display the name(s) of the payload(s) carried aboard the rocket on the flight. If there are multiple payloads, the use of a horizontal list {{Hlist}} is highly encouraged over other horizontal or vertical list formats.

Default

{{Hlist|payload1|payload2}}

Example

{{Hlist|payload1|payload2}}

Used to note the success of the flight. Traditional shorthand phrases such as "Success", "Partial failure", and "Failure" are highly encouraged, while detailed information, such as the success of individual systems, is strongly discouraged.

Suggested values

Success Partial failure Failure

Suborbital apogee if the rocket didn't reach orbital velocity. Use {{cvt|value|km}}.

Default

{{cvt|value|km}}

Example

{{cvt|value|km}}

Duration of the mission

Used to display the serial number of the rocket used in the flight. Flight number is not the same as serial number; be sure to check whether or not a number associated with a flight has been designated by the operator as the number of the flight or the serial number of the rocket used in the flight. In common circumstances, the United Launch Alliance uses "AV-xxx" numbers as serials for Atlas V rockets, while Arianespace uses "VAxxx" numbers as flight numbers for Ariane launches.

Used to display either the serial numbers of the rocket components used on the flight, or the names of the components if they are not part of the original design of the rocket body and/or variant. If both are applicable, the name of the component is to be noted followed by the serial number of the component used on the flight in parentheses. As knowledge of serial numbers are rare, reliable sources are needed in the article prose to cite these numbers.

Used to display the headline of the succession links section. Typically, this would be used to establish the chronology of either a series of flights with a rocket body, a rocket series, or an operator. This could be, for example, "Ariane flights" or "Falcon 9 flights"

Used to display wikilinks to the previous and next flight in the series defined in succession
