Mission to succes
Ariane is the generic name of a family of European civil satellite launchers. The Ariane program was launched in 1973 by CNES to give France the means to put its satellites into orbit without depending on other space powers. This project was preceded by a failure with the Europa rocket. The first version, Ariane 1, made its inaugural flight from the Kourou base (French Guiana) on December 24, 1979. It was quickly replaced by more powerful versions, Ariane 2, Ariane 3 and Ariane 4 which made their first flight respectively in 1986, 1984 and 1988. To cope with the increase in the mass of the satellites, the launcher was completely overhauled, giving birth to the Ariane 5 version capable of now placing more than 10.7 t in geostationary transfer orbit. Its first flight took place in 1996.
