List of rocket launch sites

This article constitutes a list of rocket launch sites. Some of these sites are known as spaceports or cosmodromes. A single rocket launch is sufficient for inclusion in the table, as long as the site is properly documented through a reference. Missile locations with no launches are not included in the list. Proposed and planned sites and sites under construction are not included in the main tabulation, but may appear in condensed lists under the tables.

Shorter lists with the most well-known spaceports:
 * A list of spaceports for human spaceflight and satellite launches are available in the article Spaceport.

Sorting order

 * operational date;
 * Countries in alphabetical order within a table;
