ЦитироватьAriane 5s are on the move for Arianespace's upcoming missions[/size]

August 23, 2012 – Ariane Flights VA209 & VA210

Two Ariane 5 launchers have been positioned at the Spaceport for processing in preparation for Arianespace's upcoming flights from French Guiana, maintaining the company's mission pace in 2012.

During separate activities on the same day, Flight VA209's Ariane 5 was transferred from the Launcher Integration Building – where its basic assembly was performed – to the Final Assembly Building for installation of this mission's two commercial relay satellites; while the vehicle for Flight VA210 was brought into the Spaceport after arriving by ship at nearby Pariacabo Port, completing a trans-Atlantic trip from Europe.

These concurrent developments underscore Arianespace's mission flexibility with Ariane 5 that benefit from the Spaceport's infrastructure, which is designed to support parallel launch campaigns with this workhorse vehicle.

The Flight VA209 Ariane 5's transfer to the Final Assembly Building represented a new milestone in preparations for the next mission, as it marked the launcher's delivery to Arianespace by prime contractor Astrium.  Final steps under Arianespace's responsibility will be installation of the mission's two payloads – ASTRA 2F and GSAT-10 – followed by the completed vehicle's rollout to the ELA-3 launch zone, the final countdown and liftoff on September 21.

ASTRA 2F will be operated by Luxembourg-based SES and is configured with Ku- and Ka-band payloads for the relay of high performance Direct-to-Home (DTH) and next-generation broadband services to Europe, the Middle East and Africa.  The spacecraft is a six metric ton-class platform based on Astrium's Eurostar E3000 satellite bus.

The GSAT-10 passenger for Flight VA209 was developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) for Ku- and C-band relay services as part of the Indian National Satellite (INSAT) geostationary spacecraft system.   With a liftoff mass of approximately 3,400 kg., this satellite is based on ISRO's I-3K satellite bus.

Arianespace's mission with GSAT-10 and ASTRA 2F will be the 65th flight of an Ariane 5 from French Guiana, and the 209th liftoff of an Ariane-series vehicle – which results in its VA209 designation (with the "V" representing the French word for "flight," and the "A" signifying an Ariane member of the company's commercial launcher family).

Flight VA209's Ariane 5 transfer to the Final Assembly Building opens up the Spaceport's Launcher Integration Building for Arianespace's subsequent mission, with its VA210 vehicle now ready to take shape in this facility.

ЦитироватьAn Ariane 5 mission joins the current launch preparation activities for Arianespace in French Guiana

October 10, 2012 – Ariane Flight VA210

Preparations are now fully underway for Arianespace's upcoming heavy-lift Ariane 5 mission scheduled in early November at the Spaceport – underscoring the company's launcher family operational flexibility, as this activity is in parallel with ongoing final checkout of a medium-lift Soyuz vehicle that will depart fr om French Guiana on Friday.

The Ariane 5 flight is designated VA210 in Arianespace's mission numbering system, and it will orbit two telecommunications relay satellites: EUTELSAT 21B for Europe's Eutelsat Communications, and Star One C3 for Star One S.A. of Brazil.

EUTELSAT 21B arrived this week in French Guiana, delivered by a chartered cargo jetliner that touched down at Cayenne's Félix Eboué Airport on October 8.  The VA210 mission's Ariane 5 was transferred yesterday from the Spaceport's Launcher Integration Building to the Final Assembly Building, wh ere it will be readied to receive the two satellite passengers.

With a liftoff mass of five metric tons, EUTELSAT 21B has a 15-year in-orbit design life and was built for Eutelsat by Thales Alenia Space using the Spacebus 4000 platform.   This 40-transponder Ku-band satellite will operate from Eutelsat's 21.5° East orbital position, which has been developed since 1999 as a relay location for telephone companies, enterprises and government administrations in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia.  EUTELSAT 21B's deployment will enable Eutelsat to boost capacity at this orbital slot by almost 50 percent.

VA210 will mark the 210th flight of an Ariane-series vehicle since the launcher family's startup of operations in 1979, and is to be Arianespace's sixth Ariane 5 mission so far in 2012.

The VA210 launcher activity is centered at the Spaceport's ELA-3 launch complex for Ariane 5, which is separated from the ELS facility used for Soyuz operations at French Guiana.  By design, the Spaceport is able to carry out flight preparations in parallel with the heavy-lift Ariane 5, medium-lift Soyuz and lightweight Vega, enabling Arianespace to fully benefit from the availability of its complete launcher family.

In addition to ongoing actions for the VA210 mission – which is scheduled for liftoff on November 9 – the Spaceport also is ready for this Friday's launch of the Arianespace Soyuz VS03 mission, carrying two European Galileo navigation satellites on the Russian-built vehicle's third flight from French Guiana.

Цитировать High-altitude wind conditions delay Ariane 5's dual-passenger launch
November 9, 2012 – Ariane Flight VA210
 
 Arianespace's heavy-lift Ariane 5 launch with the EUTELSAT 21B and Star One C3 telecommunications satellites has been postponed 24 hours due to unfavorable weather conditions in French Guiana.
High-altitude winds over the Spaceport's launch site exceeded the limits that are part of safety conditions for every Ariane 5 mission, leading to the postponement decision.
The Ariane 5 and its two satellite passengers are in a "safe" mode at the Spaceport's ELA-3 launch zone, ready for a resumption of the final countdown.
This flight's launch window remains the same for tomorrow, opening at 6:05 p.m. local time in French Guiana and continuing to 7:51 p.m.
