SpaceX Falcon final launch for the year. It's scheduled for 9:11am ET (14:11 UTC) from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.

The European rocket company Arianespace closes out its 2018 launch campaign on Tuesday as well, with the launch of a Russian-made Soyuz launch vehicle from the Guiana Space Center in South America. Launch time is 11:37am ET (16:37 UTC).

United Launch Alliance will launch a classified spy satellite for the US National Reconnaissance Office. The mission's name is NROL-71. Provided that weather and technical issues comply, they will launch a Delta IV Heavy rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. Launch time is 8:57pm ET (01:57 UTC Wednesday). The launch of the Delta IV Heavy rocket will be broadcast here. Unfortunately, weather conditions do not appear overly favorable at this time.
