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.

Look who's on her way 👀 Our next Vega-C passenger, @science.esa.int's Smile mission, is making its way from Europe to Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana. Can't wait to welcome her with an open fairing 🤗 Just for fun, see where she's at: www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/detai...

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.

For the first time, with 4 boosters! 🚀 Flight #VA267 is set to liftoff from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana on 12 February between 16:45–17:13 GMT (17:45–18:13 CET, 13:45–14:13 local time). With four boosters, Ariane 6 will take 32 satellites for Amazon’s Leo constellation to low-Earth orbit.

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.

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.

The “imminent threat” argument for striking Iran does not hold up. The administration cannot even keep its story straight about why the attack happened. When the explanation keeps changing, it usually means there was no real justification.
