Le port spatial europ\u00e9en situ\u00e9 pr\u00e8s de Kourou, en Guyane fran\u00e7aise, est l'un des sites de lancement les plus modernes et les plus performants au monde. Au cours des 35 derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es, trois rampes de lancement et de nombreux autres b\u00e2timents ont \u00e9t\u00e9 construits pour soutenir l'industrie europ\u00e9enne du lancement spatial.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Toutes les fus\u00e9es Ariane europ\u00e9ennes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 lanc\u00e9es depuis Kourou. Le complexe de lancement ELA-3 du port spatial a \u00e9t\u00e9 construit sp\u00e9cialement pour le nouveau lanceur lourd Ariane-5. Il est con\u00e7u pour assurer un maximum de dix missions Ariane-5 par an.<\/p>\n

ELA-3 couvre un domaine de 3 x 5 km \u2013 plus de 1500 terrains de football. En dehors du pas de tir, il comporte des b\u00e2timents permettant de pr\u00e9parer les fus\u00e9es et les satellites ainsi qu\u2019une usine qui fabrique le carburant solide des propulseurs auxiliaires d\u2019Ariane-5.<\/p>\n

Les satellites arrivent par avion dans des conteneurs \u00e0 l\u2019a\u00e9roport Rochambeau de Cayenne. Les gros \u00e9tages de fus\u00e9e sont amen\u00e9s d\u2019Europe dans un des navires de transport sp\u00e9ciaux et d\u00e9charg\u00e9s au quai de Pariacabo. Les satellites et les \u00e9tages de fus\u00e9es sont transport\u00e9s par route jusqu\u2019au port spatial voisin.<\/p>\n

L\u2019assemblage d\u2019Ariane-5 commence dans le b\u00e2timent d\u2019int\u00e9gration des lanceurs de 58 m de haut. Apr\u00e8s 13 jours, la fus\u00e9e est d\u00e9plac\u00e9e sur sa table de lancement mobile \u00e0 roues pour aller lentement sur une voie ferr\u00e9e jusqu\u2019au b\u00e2timent d\u2019assemblage final de 90 m de haut.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
