ARIANE 5

ARIANE 5 is a powerful European rocket designed to launch satellites into space. It operates by firing engines to lift heavy payloads beyond Earth's atmosphere, often carrying communication, weather, and scientific satellites. Built by Airbus and ArianeGroup, it uses a combination of solid and liquid fuel stages for efficient and reliable launches. Since its first flight in 1996, ARIANE 5 has become a key asset for European space activities, known for its consistency and ability to carry large or multiple satellites in a single mission, supporting global communications and scientific research.
