Everyday Astronaut | Watch the LAST Ariane 5 rocket launch ever!!! @EverydayAstronaut | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
After 27 years of service, the Ariane 5 era is coming to a close. For the last launch of the Ariane 5 rocket, specifically the ECA+ variant, it will loft two satellites into a geostationary transfer orbit, leaving the rest of the work to onboard propellant systems. The two satellites are the Syracuse 4B and the Heinrich Hertz (H2Sat) for the French government and German space agency, respectively.

This will be the 117th and final mission for the Ariane 5, which had its first successful launch in 1998 as it’s G variant. The first ever launch attempt was in 1996. The Ariane V has launched numerous notable payloads such as the recently launched James Webb Space Telescope, Rosetta, JUICE, and BepiColombo just to name a few.
