Una campa\u00f1a de lanzamiento del Ariane 5 suele durar aproximadamente cinco semanas. Durante las primeras etapas, los equipos preparan y revisan el cohete y los sat\u00e9lites. Aunque el trabajo se reparte entre diferentes equipos, la campa\u00f1a se organiza de tal manera que todo est\u00e9 listo a tiempo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Doce d\u00edas antes del lanzamiento se inician las operaciones para integrar los sat\u00e9lites mont\u00e1ndolos sobre el lanzador. Esto se lleva a cabo en el Edificio de Ensamblaje Final.<\/p>\n

Un d\u00eda antes del despegue, el cohete Ariane-5 se transporta por ra\u00edles hasta la plataforma de lanzamiento. Una vez que la plataforma m\u00f3vil se conecta a la plataforma de lanzamiento, se inicia la cuenta atr\u00e1s final.<\/p>\n

Se llenan los tanques principales de combustible, se comprueban los subsistemas del lanzador y se carga el programa de vuelo en el ordenador. Por \u00faltimo, a menos 6 minutos 30 segundos, la cuenta atr\u00e1s se hace autom\u00e1tica.<\/p>\n

'10, 9, 8, \u2026'. El Director de Operaciones completa la cuenta atr\u00e1s desde la ventana de seguridad en el Centro de Control J\u00fapiter situado a 12 km de la plataforma de lanzamiento.<\/p>\n
