FLAGSHIP11/100LEO + Cislunar Progress — how far we are toward a self-sustaining cislunar economy, on a 0–100 scale. The flagship index.CADENCE175Launch Cadence Index — How busy is orbit, and are we on record pace? The number is orbital launches worldwide so far this year — a running total, not a score out of 100.SPACEX49%▼SpaceX Dominance — How much of global launch is SpaceX? The number is SpaceX's share of this year's global orbital launches, in percent.GROWTH65/100▲Space-Economy Growth — How fast is the real space economy growing? The number is a 0–100 composite score of real space-activity growth for the latest full year.
