Soyuz launch facility

Construction of the new Soyuz launch facility at the Guiana Space Centre (Centre Spatial Guyanais – CSG), Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana.

The launcher assembly and testing building (MIK) is where the preparation activities for the three-stage Soyuz launcher and the Fregat upper stage will take place. A 700 m-long railway leading to the launch platform will be used for the horizontal rollout of Soyuz launch vehicles on their erector.
