Upgraded P160C solid rocket boosters have arrived at Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana for integration with Ariane 6 ahead of Leo Europe 3 (LE-03). Debuting on our next mission with @Arianespace, these boosters will carry the largest Amazon Leo mission with Ariane to date. Updates coming soon.

🚀 We have increased our investment in the MIURA 5 Launch Complex at the Guiana Space Centre (CSG) to €35M. This milestone makes PLD Space the first private operator to invest at this scale at the ELM-Diamant site, contributing to the evolution of Europe's historic spaceport. At the same time, construction activities at the site continue to progress, with civil works now entering their final phase and completion expected this summer.

🦎 Project Hyguane news! Just before retiring, our former Director Toni Tolker-Nielsen signed a contract with MT Aerospace and @CNES representatives on a crucial step towards low-carbon hydrogen at Europe's Spaceport. The contract confirmed the construction of a 4.5 MWp solar power plant named PV3: ☀️ This solar power plant will be the third facility designed, commissioned, and operated by @CNES. PV3 is a key element to supply low-carbon hydrogen for Europe's Spaceport. esa.int/Enabling_Support/Spa…

A Vega-C launch goes quickly! Just eight minutes after liftoff and Smile is already coasting 200 km above our planet. 🛰️🌍 In order: P120C fired and separated, Zefiro-40 fired and separated, fairing was jettisoned, and Zefiro-9 stage has now taken over.

For launches like #VV29 to happen, we need a place to launch them from. And that place is @EuropeSpacePort in French Guiana. ESA's Director of @ESA_transport Géraldine Naja, and Director of the Guiana Space Centre at @CNES Philippe Lier, signed a contract for its continued operation. The contract covers all activities needed to operate the French territory part of the spaceport, including both daily operations and running of the facilities and upgrades to adapt @EuropeSpacePort for the arrival of new rockets, launch services and so on. esa.int/Enabling_Support/Spa…
