An exact number is not available, but the number of orbital satellite launches is much smaller than the number of suborbital launches, mainly by the military and not by NASA, although they share facilities. The total number of NASA orbital launches is not more than a thousand or two. The number of manned missions is over 100.

There were about 3000 total launches from Cape Canaveral from 1950 to 1999, but many of these were military test vehicles, and a large number preceded the formation of NASA in 1958. There have been just over 6000 satellite launches by all nations worldwide.
