European Arianespace, the world's first and largest commercial space transportation company, is behind the Ariane 5 rocket. On 10 December 1999 an Ariane-5 from Kourou, French Guiana lauch "XMM-Newton", the biggest science satellite ever built in Europe to date. With the most sensitive detectors and telescope mirrors ever developed in the world, XMM-Newton is detecting more X-ray sources than any previous satellite, helping to solve many cosmic mysteries of the violent Universe, from what happens in and around black holes to the formation of galaxies in the early universe.

@naplesjake i can its just its in the title Europe rules , as in europe is the best .
@kirza94 eh, more like you can’t! eh…
@naplesjake eh, if u didnt get it im not explaining it
@kirza94 Rules what?
EUROPE RULES , just thought i should say that
, oh and so does ESA.
If Freud could see a rocket launch, he would probably think about “fallic” meanings in these scenes. Actually, Rockets seems “big dicks”!
I just love the design of this rocket, it looks far more appealing than the look of the Space Shuttle (er.. the rocket it’s lanched on) or other rocket designs by NASA, imo.

et c’est pourquoi je vous ridicules que nous faisons les sattelites galileo.
@EUofficial
ecrasez les francais qui pensent qu’il peuvent prendre l’UE comme garanteur pour leur reves d’un pouvoir grand francais contre les EU,
ne pensez pas que nous acceptons votre commerce mistral avec les russes, vous trahissez la democratie et l’humanite!
c’est pourquoi que moi, allemand, aime la GB qui sont allies avec les EU.
je ne hais les francais pas du tout, ils sont nos allies et partenairs plus etroits mais vous n’etes pas nos amies si vous vous opposez aux EU.
@JuliusScenester ,Nasa have No clients to launch satellites wherease Arianespace have, Yes, all national administrations, but I really think that if they can choose theire launcher, It will be our : Theire GPS satellites Won’t explose during liftoff, or will be in a good orbit and not reentering 1/2 hour before the launch !! Ariane 5 have a really great success, I really hope, europe, will give money to build an ariane 6 more heavy and more stable to erase all others satellites launchers
Only the Delta 4 Heavy lifts more. The Atlas V and Delta 4 Medium(+) have lower lift capacity. Atlas V Heavy is a paper rocket at this point and, in my opinion, will not be built in the near future. There is just no need for 2 heavy launchers.
over 9000, that fur sure. lol
NASA? Actually Atlas V and Delta IV Heavy can both lift more payload that Ariane V. That being said, those huge solid rockets will make Ariane the most visually stunning launcher in the world once the shuttle retires.
@EUofficial ESA isn’t a part of the European Union. At least not yet.
how much hp ?
