The inaugural flight of Ariane 6 should take place between “end of June, beginning of July”. The official launch date will be officially set in May.
Initially planned for 2020, this first flight has been postponed several times due to the Covid-19 pandemic and development difficulties. “I feel like I’m on board with you since the first day in this adventure,” launched Emmanuel Macron, taking note of this slightly more ambitious schedule. The French president visited the Kourou space center as part of a visit to Guyana.
