Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana - Back to business

Описание к видео Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana - Back to business

Workers are returning to Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana to resume preparations for Vega and Ariane 5 launches. Construction of the new Ariane 6 launch pad has also restarted.

COVID-19 lockdown measures introduced in March meant that all but safety-critical operations were suspended at the Spaceport and the vast site had to be secured. Strict new safety and hygiene procedures have now been introduced. Launch teams returning from mainland Europe will spend two weeks in quarantine.

Vega is due to return to flight this summer on its first rideshare mission dedicated to small satellites and Vega's new dispenser called the Small Spacecraft Mission Service.
