Established in 1941, Vandenberg Space Force Base is a space launch base, launching spacecraft from the Western Range, and also performs missile testing. The United States Space Force's Space Launch Delta 30 serves as the host delta for the base, equivalent to an Air Force air base wing. In addition to its military space launch mission, Vandenberg Space Force Base also hosts space launches for civil and commercial space entities, such as NASA and SpaceX.", "image": { "id": 2226, "name": "Vandenberg SFB imaged by Sentinel-2", "image_url": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/vandenberg_sfb__image_20240920082910.jpeg", "thumbnail_url": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/vandenberg_sfb__image_thumbnail_20240920082910.jpeg", "credit": "Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data 2020", "license": { "id": 33, "name": "Copernicus Image Use Policy", "priority": 0, "link": "https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32013R1159" }, "single_use": true, "variants": [] }, "map_image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/map_images/location_11_20200803142416.jpg", "longitude": -120.52023, "latitude": 34.75133, "timezone_name": "America/Los_Angeles", "total_launch_count": 808, "total_landing_count": 26 } }, "webcast_live": false, "program": [], "orbital_launch_attempt_count": 3837, "location_launch_attempt_count": 556, "pad_launch_attempt_count": 78, "agency_launch_attempt_count": 928, "orbital_launch_attempt_count_year": 52, "location_launch_attempt_count_year": 3, "pad_launch_attempt_count_year": 1, "agency_launch_attempt_count_year": 8 }, { "id": "dcd145ff-da95-4020-8e1b-241fd28dc689", "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.3.0/launches/dcd145ff-da95-4020-8e1b-241fd28dc689/?format=api", "name": "Space Shuttle Atlantis / OV-104 | STS-81", "response_mode": "normal", "slug": "space-shuttle-atlantis-ov-104-sts-81", "launch_designator": "1997-001", "status": { "id": 3, "name": "Launch Successful", "abbrev": "Success", "description": "The launch vehicle successfully inserted its payload(s) into the target orbit(s)." }, "last_updated": "2023-06-14T08:49:35Z", "net": "1997-01-12T09:27:23Z", "net_precision": null, "window_end": "1997-01-12T09:27:23Z", "window_start": "1997-01-12T09:27:23Z", "image": { "id": 1840, "name": "[AUTO] Space Shuttle - image", "image_url": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/space_shuttle_image_20230422074810.jpeg", "thumbnail_url": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/255bauto255d__image_thumbnail_20240305193916.jpeg", "credit": null, "license": { "id": 1, "name": "Unknown", "priority": 9, "link": null }, "single_use": true, "variants": [] }, "infographic": null, "probability": -1, "weather_concerns": null, "failreason": null, "hashtag": null, "launch_service_provider": { "response_mode": "list", "id": 191, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.3.0/agencies/191/?format=api", "name": "United Space Alliance", "abbrev": "USA", "type": { "id": 3, "name": "Commercial" } }, "rocket": { "id": 410, "configuration": { "response_mode": "list", "id": 493, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.3.0/launcher_configurations/493/?format=api", "name": "Space Shuttle", "families": [], "full_name": "Space Shuttle", "variant": "" } }, "mission": { "id": 827, "name": "STS-81", "type": "Human Exploration", "description": "STS-81 was a January 1997 Space Shuttle Atlantis mission to the Mir space station.", "image": null, "orbit": { "id": 8, "name": "Low Earth Orbit", "abbrev": "LEO", "celestial_body": { "response_mode": "list", "id": 1, "name": "Earth" } }, "agencies": [], "info_urls": [], "vid_urls": [] }, "pad": { "id": 4, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.3.0/pads/4/?format=api", "active": true, "agencies": [ { "response_mode": "normal", "id": 44, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.3.0/agencies/44/?format=api", "name": "National Aeronautics and Space Administration", "abbrev": "NASA", "type": { "id": 1, "name": "Government" }, "featured": true, "country": [ { "id": 2, "name": "United States of America", "alpha_2_code": "US", "alpha_3_code": "USA", "nationality_name": "American", "nationality_name_composed": "Americano" } ], "description": "The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is an independent agency of the executive branch of the United States federal government responsible for the civilian space program, as well as aeronautics and aerospace research.
