Overview
The SpaceX GraphQL API (api.spacex.land) provided company, ships, launchpad, and launch data.
⚠️ Status (verified 2026-08): the API host now 301-redirects to
spacex.land(the site’s homepage) and the GraphQL endpoint returns 403 — the public GraphQL API has been retired. Do not build new projects on it.
What it used to provide
curl -X POST "https://api.spacex.land/graphql/" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"query": "{ launches(limit: 1) { mission_name } }"}'
Alternatives
