NET means no earlier than. Flights to the International Space Station launch in a short window timed to the station's orbit, so a delay usually means trying again on a later day. Of the 13 NASA-related launches listed for the next 12 months, 1 has an exact time, 1 has a launch day but no time yet, 10 have only a target month and 1 has no date yet.
