Dix minutes avant le tout dernier lancement d'#Ariane5 ! #VA261 https://www.youtube.com/live/kji8tsI2UFM
Weather update from #ArianeSpace, still GO for today's launch of the last #Ariane5 with #VA261's launch window still set at 22:00 UTC (July 7th at 00:00 for CEST)!
No launch from ESA today. The upper level winds were too high Launch tomorrow of #VA261 at 4 pm MDT. Here’s my Heller 1/125 model of the Ariane 5 that carried JWST:
Heute ist die letzte Chance, den Start einer #Ariane5 live zu verfolgen.
Die letzte ihrer Art bringt einen französischen Militärsatelliten #SYRACUS4B und einen deutschen Kommunikations- und Testsatelliten #HeinrichHertz in einen geostationären Orbit.
Start ist ab 23:00 Uhr von #Kourou
Den Livestream gibts hier.

Wie gesagt die letzte Chance, eine der schönsten Raketen starten zu sehen, bevor die #Ariane6 in ferner Zukunft übernimmt.

Winding down tonight. Tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 pm Mountain the Ariane 5 is scheduled to fly its last ever mission, #VA261. The French military Syracuse 4B and the German Heinrich Hertz comsats will be flying. Goodnight.
Ariane 5 readying up for her final goodbye with #VA261. 27 years of service is insane, it's older than me and yet it's still one of the most precise rockets when it comes to orbit injections. Also one of the most beautiful designs, there is something about it that feels so pleasing, so balanced.
Estamos a 24 horas del ultimo lanzamiento del #Ariane5. 😥
