- Description
On 9 July 2024, Europe’s new rocket made its first voyage into space. After years and months of preparation, the launch site was ready, the 90-metre-tall mobile building rolled back to reveal the mighty rocket, and Ariane 6 soared.
Witness the liftoff from every angle, close and far, real-time and timelapse, in this Ariane 6 launch montage combining all the footage from the launch site at Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana.
Ariane 6 launched from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana at 16:00 local time (20:00 BST, 21:00 CEST), designed to provide more launch power with higher flexibility and at a lower cost than its predecessors. The launcher’s configuration – with an upgraded main stage, a choice of either two or four powerful boosters and a new restartable upper stage – will provide Europe with greater efficiency and a wider range of launch services, including for the launch of multiple payloads into different orbits on a single flight.
