Here she stands tall.
We're wrapping up a big week for Ariane 6. The central core and the two boosters for the first Ariane 6 flight model, an Ariane 62 version, were transferred to and installed on the launch pad on April 24, 25 and 26.

is a truly European success story!

builds the rocket,
@CNES
brings the launch pad,
@esa
decides the launcher program, and
@Arianespace
provides launch services. They've brought together the know-how of thousands of experts to create the best Ariane yet.
Ariane 6 literally gets off the ground this year! This month will be all about the new member of the Ariane family. Who would like to be there to watch it soar into space?

Hey there, following on our previous exchange, for now our rockets only launch satellites, cargos, telescopes, but have you heard about our latest concept SUSIE? ⬇️As for the rest, stay tuned for our DMs. 😉
Susie will replace the Ariane 6’s fairing and will be able to operate as an automated freighter or perform crewed missions with up to five astronauts.

Susie will be entirely reusable and will come back to Earth for a soft touchdown, after a high-precision atmospheric re-entry, offering the greatest possible end-to-end safety for the flight personnel in a crewed mission

À partir de demain et jusqu’au 17 juin je serai en Guyane pour le décollage de Ariane 5 (la folie merci
@ArianeGroup
pour l’invitation)
Venez suivre ça sur Insta, j’en ferais aussi un vlog YouTube j’ai trop hâte
Suppose the Ariane 5 legend were written in the Hyrule Space Center. When our engineers aren't playing at KSP or with Lego blocks, they seek inspiration from other universes.

🚂 What if Ariane had been invented during the steam age? Here’s an artist’s impression of a version from the end of the 19th century, early 20th century. How do you think they would have powered it? Answers with figures, please (even silly ones!).

Olivier Bonhomme's favorite dream is "to visit all the galaxies in his mind". So it's quite natural that our third illustrator was inspired by James Webb, the space telescope that will be launched into space in the coming weeks.

🔥 Heads up for some upcoming news about Themis and its Prometheus engine hot-fire tests. Starting with one engine, and then testing with three engines!

It has come to our attention that we replied to a video and we shouldn’t have. We do not condone that type of of tweet and deleted our reply. Thanks to our community that pointed it out and our deepest apologies. We do hope all of you enjoy today’s launch.
🛳We got new pictures from Canopée, the ship that will transport the various pieces of Ariane 6 between Europe and French Guiana. On November 10, the ship was docked in Rotterdam under the Dutch sun. Such a beautiful sight!

Je suis potentiellement le mec le plus jeune de l’histoire à avoir vu une fusée Ariane d’aussi près et ça c’est du palmarès

core stage has successfully carried out its first complete hot-fire test on its launch pad, as part of the combined tests campaign. This hot-fire test took place after a simulation of an entire launch sequence. Learn all the details here:
Save the date: only 7 days to go before the next launch on December 12. For the second time, Ariane 5 will carry 4 Galileo satellites inside its fairing. An extraordinary mission!
We continue our VIP visit behind the scenes with a peek at how we build the Vulcain 2.1 engines at Vernon, the setting for the film L'Astronaute.

👩🏻✈️👨🏽✈️ Much more than a simple “like,” we really appreciate our patrol of space fans. ArianeGroup wishes for you a year in 2021 full of rewarding exploits, over-achievements, and space dreams.
The whole strategy for a new launcher is rooted in a constant evolution from previous versions. Every new Ariane reflects on our know-how and constant efforts to progress.
#ArianeGroup

For us, space isn’t just about speed or launch rate; our first priority is to provide rockets that are the best adapted for successful missions.

#ArianeGroup
#Ariane6
From 8,000 kN to 15,000 kN. That's how much oomph Ariane 6 will have, depending on whether it's equipped with 2 or 4 solid-fuel boosters. What's new about these boosters?
