Quote from: jcm on 07/04/2024 03:16 pm Thierry Vallee of CNES posted on twitter pictures of the NOTAM zones, including the Pacific reentry area for the upper stage.Does anyone have the actual NOTAM with the numerical coords for that Pacific area?Not NOTAMs, but here are the NGA marine hazard notices, listed in the order received. The first one came out a few days ago, the rest came out today. Two are Space Debris. The other two are combined Rocket Launching and Space Debris, and are the same notice for two different Navigational Areas.The third notice is the only one listed as being for the Pacific, so it's presumably the one you want.Note: I don't normally follow Arianespace launches, but I am following this one.

Ariane 6 is scheduled to launch on 9 July 2024, with a launch window from 15:00-19:00 local time at Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana (19:00–23:00 BST, 9 July 20:00–10 July 00:00 CEST).This is a big moment for Europe, as the rocket will ensure our guaranteed, autonomous access to space – and all of the science, Earth observation, technology development and commercial possibilities that it entails. With many features brand new to Ariane 6, we’ll be able to carry more and take it further, while sustainably disposing of the launcher's upper stage to prevent it becoming space debris.Phase 1: From ground to orbitThe first phase of Ariane 6’s flight will launch the rocket off Earth and into space with the thrust from the main stage powered by the Vulcain engine together with the force from the two powerful P120C boosters. Phase 1 includes the separation of the main stage from the upper stage and the first boost of the upper stage’s Vinci engine, which inserts it and its passengers into an elliptical orbit 300 by 700 km above Earth.The first flight of Ariane 6 will have three phases, each of which will demonstrate various abilities for Europe’s newest heavy-lift rocket.Phase 2: Upper stage reignition and satellite deploymentThe next phase is when Ariane 6’s newest feature is put to the test: reignition of the upper stage. In phase 2, the Vinci engine will re-fire, changing Ariane 6’s orbit from elliptical to circular. This will be followed by the deployment of the rocket’s eight satellites and the activation of its five onboard experiments. Phase 3 : Tech demos, deorbiting and capsule separationThe final phase in Ariane 6’s inaugural flight will be to push the cryogenic upper stage to its limits and validate its ability to perform under microgravity conditions. The final phase will initiate the controlled deorbit of the upper stage back through Earth’s atmosphere over the South Pacific ‘NEMO point’, to prevent it from becoming space debris. Moments later, the two reentry capsules onboard will separate from the upper stage, and all three will make their safe descent back home.The launch will be covered in several languages which can be followed at the links below:English: https://youtube.com/live/B0oFpOJaIYc?...French: https://youtube.com/live/AfNPzSOalEU?...German: https://youtube.com/live/a_87OnvB_fQ?...A clean feed without commentary is available too: https://youtube.com/live/ogXamYYJpQk?...★ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/ESAsubscribe and click twice on the bell button to receive our notifications.Check out our full video catalog: http://bit.ly/SpaceInVideosFollow us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/ESAonTwitterOn Facebook: http://bit.ly/ESAonFacebookOn Instagram: http://bit.ly/ESAonInstagramOn LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/ESAonLinkedInOn Pinterest: https://bit.ly/ESAonPinterestOn Flickr: http://bit.ly/ESAonFlickrWe are Europe's gateway to space.

Ariane 6 will power Europe into space. Ariane 6 will make history.Standing next to the massive #Ariane6 is indescribable. I feel a wide-range of emotions as we get ready to make an impact on European history, for Europe's future, for generations of Europeans. This is just the first step, we have lots of work to do yet, but we are laser-focused on changing the future of the European space transportation ecosystem.
The #Ariane6 mobile gantry is on the move!📹Footage from Ariane 6 wet dress rehearsal on 20 June
Ariane 6 is set for its maiden launch, lofting several rideshare payloads.The mission will liftoff from ELA-4 at the Guiana Space Centre in Kourou, French Guiana.Overview by Adrian Beil (@BCCarCounters)
#Ariane6 launch update:As part of normal operations in the Ariane 6 preparation after mobile gantry removal, routine checks in the ground segment equipment showed a small issue in the data acquisition. It has now been resolved.Liftoff is now scheduled no earlier than 20:00 BST/21:00 CEST.Live coverage will now begin at 19:30 BST/20:30 CEST.Join us live here or on YouTube ➡️ youtube.com/watch?v=ogXamY…
