For SpaceNut ... the site you showed us is quite interesting, but it didn't seem able to answer the question you posed....
I asked Mr. Google to be more specific, and got this:
Google Inquiry: When is the next Mars launch window
Result top item:
Launch windows
Year Launch Spacecraft (launched or planned)
2016 Mar 2016 ExoMars TGO
2018 May 2018 InSight
2020 Jul 2020 – Sep 2020 Rosalind Franklin rover, Mars 2020 rover, Mars Hope orbiter, 2020 Chinese Mars Mission

The Mars Helicopter will launch with the Mars 2020 rover on a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket in July 2020 from Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. When it lands in Jezero Crater on Feb. 18, 2021, the rover will also be the first spacecraft in the history of planetary exploration with the ability to accurately retarget its point of touchdown during the landing sequence.
