European Ariane 6 rocket launched into space

The European rocket Ariane 6 was launched into space with new, more powerful solid-fuel boosters. It was launched from the European Space Center in Kourou, French Guiana, carrying 36 satellites for Amazon. Ariane 6 is the successor to the Ariane 5 rocket, which was used from 1996 to 2023. The rocket is significantly cheaper than its predecessor and is intended for commercial and public users. Depending on the mission, it can be equipped with two or four solid-fuel boosters. Over ten countries were involved in building Ariane 6, with Germany being the second-largest contributor among ESA member

Raketa je lansirana poslijepodne iz europskog svemirskog centra u Kourouu u Francuskoj Gvajani, noseći 36 satelita za Amazon

Europska raketa Ariane 6 lansirana je u svemir u srijedu s novim, snažnijim pomoćnim raketnim motorima.

Raketa je lansirana poslijepodne iz europskog svemirskog centra u Kourouu u Francuskoj Gvajani, noseći 36 satelita za Amazon.

Ariane 6 nasljednik je rakete Ariane 5, koja je bila u upotrebi od 1996. do 2023. Prvi put je lansirana sredinom 2024.

Namijenjena je nošenju satelita u svemir za komercijalne i javne korisnike te je znatno jeftinija od svog prethodnika, priopćila je Europska svemirska agencija (ESA).

Ovisno o misiji, fleksibilna raketa može biti opremljena s dva ili četiri pomoćna motora na kruto gorivo.

Do sada je letjela s motorima P120C, ali ovaj put raketa je opremljena snažnijim modelima P160C. Motor P160C može nositi više krutog goriva, što raketu čini sposobnijom.

Više od deset zemalja bilo je uključeno u izgradnju Ariane 6. Nakon Francuske, Njemačka je drugi najveći podupiratelj među državama članicama ESA-e i snosila je oko 20 posto troškova od oko 4 milijarde eura.

Gornji stupanj je sastavljen u Njemačkoj, a glavne komponente i sustavi motora također su proizvedeni i testirani u njemačkim pogonima.

European rocket Ariane 6 launched into space with new, more powerful engines

The European rocket Ariane 6 was launched into space carrying 36 satellites for Amazon. It is the successor to the Ariane 5 rocket, which was used from 1996 to 2023. The new rocket features stronger solid-fuel auxiliary motors (P160C), making it more capable than previous models. Ariane 6 is significantly cheaper than its predecessor and is designed for both commercial and public satellite missions. Over ten countries were involved in building the rocket, with Germany being the second-largest contributor after France.

Bias read (Center): The article provides factual information about the launch of the Ariane 6 rocket, its technical specifications, and international collaboration without any apparent ideological framing or biased language.
