Here we go! 🚀 The first Ariane 64 is now fully assembled, standing tall inside the mobile gantry, on the launch pad. This 20-metre tall fairing hides and protects 32 Amazon Leo satellites until it's time to reveal them to space.

AVUM+ just fired for the last time to ensure a safe deorbit and allowing Vega-C to adhere to the zero debris approach.

Ariane 6 just started to deploy the first of the 32 Amazon Leo satellites.

Loud and powerful: Vega-C even makes cameras "faint". This video shows Vega-C's ascent to the skies for flight #VV29 recorded by one of the closest to action cameras.

Nothing beats a smooth sail 🌴 Back in January, the first 3 stages of the next Vega-C rocket arrived in French Guiana! #VV29 Manufactured in mainland Europe, the stages were transported by Canopée, the first custom-built transporter to use sails, reducing emissions and saving on fuel by up to 30%.

With the first Ariane 6 with four boosters, our fleet of rockets is complete 🚀 We will continue to work on upgrades to reduce costs, make our launch systems more robust and launch more often. For example, the powerful P160C rocket motor will replace P120C on both Ariane 6 and Vega-C rockets.

After 2 minutes of pure thrust (and 142 tonnes of solid propellant), the first stage of Vega-C, P120C, was turned off and left behind. Now the second stage takes over: Zefiro-40 will fire for 3 minutes, propelling the Smile farther away from Earth!

The launcher is complete, all systems are ready and the countdown is on! ⚡️ Flight #VA268 will take 32 Amazon Leo satellites from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana to low Earth orbit. Liftoff is set for 30 April 2026 between 09:08-09:57 BST/10:08-10:57 CEST.

The Helix engine was the first European engine to demonstrate staged combustion technology. This engine uses an oxygen-rich staged combustion engine cycle, to get the most out of every drop of propellant.
