THE LAUNCHER ARIANE 5 ECA

Le Bourget - The launcher Ariane 5 ECA represents a major milestone for the European space industry. The new generation launcher was developed to keep pace with trends in the commercial launch market, especially larger and heavier satellites, and to satisfy governmental needs. Equipped with the Vulcain 2 main engine and with the new cryogenic upper stage ESC-A the launcher is capable of boosting up to 10 tonnes into geostationnary transfer orbit (GTO) for a single or dual launch (two satellites at once). Using a reignitable storable propellant upper stage it can also carry the ATV towards the International Space Station into low Earth orbit (LEO). The increased-performance Ariane 5 ECA is now in full commercial service following the successful flight 164 on February 12th, 2005. The next ECA flight, which is both the last qualification and first commercial flight, will take place in summer this year.
