We are very proud to have taken part in this exceptional construction site, called ELA-4 (Lunching Ensemble Ariane number 4). This launch pad, dedicated to the Ariane 6 family, differs from previous launch sets due to the horizontal assembly of Ariane 6, a technique inspired by other industries and Russian and American competitors which replaces the vertical assembly as it is practiced today with Ariane 5.<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">This launch pad is the ninth built at the Guiana Space Center (CSG) and the fourth for Ariane. It is located 3.5 km from the current Ariane 5 ELA\u20113, along the \u201cSpace Road\u201d which leads to the Soyuz Launch Complex, 6.5 km further on. Its main structures are the launch pad, the mobile gantry and the launcher assembly building. A few figures concerning this huge project: 4.5 years of work, earthworks: 700,000 m3 (7 times the Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral), volume of reinforced concrete: 55,000 m3\u2026 (Client: Eiffage G\u00e9nie Civil)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Photos CNES &#8211; Arianegroup<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_left wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1130\" src=\"https:\/\/www.samt.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/samt_pas_de_tir_ariane_6_1.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"\" title=\"samt_pas_de_tir_ariane_6_1\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_left wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/www.samt.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/samt_pas_de_tir_ariane_6_2.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"\" title=\"samt_pas_de_tir_ariane_6_2\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_left wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/www.samt.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/samt_pas_de_tir_ariane_6_3.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"\" title=\"samt_pas_de_tir_ariane_6_3\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_left wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/www.samt.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/samt_pas_de_tir_ariane_6_4.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"\" title=\"samt_pas_de_tir_ariane_6_4\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"2023 devrait \u00eatre l\u2019ann\u00e9e du 1er d\u00e9collage d\u2019Ariane 6.
