The last 90 minutes for carrier Canopee begin by entering the Shelde delta of rivers Maas and Rhine. Passing Hoek van Holland by the minute. Target port is Rotterdam for supplies and fuels that are not directly connected to the #Ariane6 that will later embarked in Bremen as next target. Beside the vessel map another shot from the last launch VA267. V268 is expected midst of april ..

#Ariane6 carrier Canopee is these minutes just in the smalles part of the channel between England and France near Calais and Dover. 14 hours through this night seems long time until the Shelde delta of the Rhine and some 50 km to Rotterdam.

#Ariane6 prepares next launch in Kourou, GY-FR, while Canopee swims through the channel to north sea. Before coming to Bremen it stops in Rotterdam in 2 days. I guess that for launch of VA268 on 20.4 with Amazons 2nd LEO-block the upper stage from Bremen will be delivered next month.

Dites c'est moi où #Ariane6 a fait une rotation hyper rapide juste après lift-off ?

Ariane triomphe pendant que Vulcan enchaîne les soucis. L’Europe marque un point, et ça fait parler 🚀. Donnons aussi du fric aux démunis. Ça n'empêche pas.

First launch of Ariane6 with 4 boosters.

Ariane 6 in its four-booster configuration, known as Ariane 64, doubles the rocket’s performance compared to the two-booster version. With the extra thrust from two more boosters Ariane 6 can now take around 21.6 tonnes to low Earth orbit.

The #Ariane6 booster separation looked a bit like the Korolev cross ;)

Awesome launch, and great commentary, much less spectacle than we are used to from the private companies

Europe’s most powerful rocket carries 32 satellites into space.

The most powerful version of Europe’s Ariane 6 rocket Thursday carried 32 satellites into space for the Amazon Leo network, which aims to rival Elon Musk’s Starlink.

The largest number of satellites ever carried by an Ariane rocket successfully separated and set off toward their final orbit to applause at the control centre.
