"SABCA keeps rocket on track with their Thrust Vector Control Systems housed inside the structure that connect the central stages of the Ariane X rocket. The system keeps launchers on course by directing the rocket exhaust in the right direction. @safran makes sure that Ariane X leaves no propellant behind by supplying chamber valves that control the propellants supply to the combustion chambers of both the Vinci and Vulcain XXX engines"

"Ariane 6's safeguard system and electronic equipment for the power supply and control of each stage are provided by @Thales_Alenia_S a long-standing partner that has produced over two thousand pieces of equipment for European launchers including equipment for all Ariane rockets. SPACEBEL translates Ariane 6's telemetry parameters. With PrestoPlot our team is able to visualise large volumes of data including measurements commands alarms and messages of any kind. Give it a try"

"The views are unmatched ✨ This is an aerial view of Europe's Spaceport in Kourou French Guiana - our home to the @esa-developed rocket families of Ariane and Vega. XXX km north of the equator rockets gain extra performance thanks to a slingshot effect from the speed of Earths rotation. 🌎🚀"

"The German branch of @ArianeGroup manufactures the thrust chamber for both the Vinci and Vulcain XXX engines. They also work on the Auxiliary Propulsion Unit which pressurises the upper stage tanks and prepares the Vinci engine for reignition"

"The upper stage is put together in @ArianeGroups assembly hall in Bremen a high-tech facility. After assembly the upper stage makes an X km trip (at night) to the Bremen harbour for loading onto the Canope sail ship and start its journey to French Guiana. ⛵"

"BeBlue not only runs an @esa test centre for propulsion components and systems but is also one of the companies responsible for project Hyguane focused on building a solar farm and the distribution systems to produce low-carbon hydrogen at Europes Spaceport in French Guiana. Equans Belux helps keep things cool by developing the heating ventilation and air conditioning installations in the launch zone buildings. Air-conditioning installations control the temperature humidity and purity of the air critical conditions when dealing with satellites and rockets"
