List of Ariane launches
1979–1989 · 1990–1999 · 2000–2009 · 2010–2019 · 2020–2029

This is a list of launches performed or scheduled to be performed by Ariane rocket family between 2020 and 2029. During this time, the Ariane 5 was retired in favour of the Ariane 6.

Four Ariane 6 launches took place in 2025, eight are planned for 2026, with an eventual ramp to eleven launches per year planned, an increase over the targeted seven annual launches of Ariane 5.[1][2]

Flight VA253 was planned to launch in June 2020.[3] However, launch campaign activities were significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. To prevent the spread in French Guiana and protect Centre Spatial Guyanais employees, all launch activities were suspended on 16 March 2020.[4][5][6] Operations for Vega flight VV16 and Ariane 5 flight VA253 could not resume until 28 April 2020.[7][8][9] VA253 activities were listed among the top priorities at the reopening of the Guiana Space Center on 11 May 2020.[10] The launch was rescheduled for end of July 2020[8][11][12] to place the satellites into a geostationary transfer orbit from which they will eventually be placed into geostationary orbit through their own propulsion. The flight was again aborted on 28 July 2020, due to a "red" warning in the system, resulting from a sensor problem related to LH2 tank on the core stage.

American satellite operator Intelsat and Japanese Broadcasting Satellite System Corporation (B-SAT) are the customers for Ariane flight VA253.[13][14]

Galaxy 30 is a communications satellite built by Northrop Grumman Innovation Systems (formerly Orbital ATK) on the GEOStar-2 platform for Intelsat. It has C-band, Ku-band, Ka-band payloads, as well as a WAAS payload for a mass of 3,325 kilograms (7,330 lb).[15] Built in satellite manufacturing facility in Dulles, Virginia, it will primarily serve video markets in North America.[16] As per Intelsat/Arianespace contract announced in January 2018,[17] Galaxy 30 would share the upper berth of the Ariane 5 ECA rocket with MEV-2, which is a Northrop Grumman second satellite servicing vehicle, identical to MEV-1. With a mass of 2,326 kilograms (5,128 lb), it would begin a five-year mission to extend the lifetime of Intelsat 10-02.[18] MEV-2 received FCC authorization on 25 March 2020.[19]

BSAT-4b is the second communications satellite of the fourth generation B-SAT, built by SSL (company) on its SSL 1300 platform. It has 24 Ku-band transponders and mass of 3,520 kilograms (7,760 lb).[20]

Brazilian Satellite operator Embratel and European Eutelsat were customers on the VA254 flight.[21]

Eutelsat Quantum is a European re-programmable telecommunications satellite equipped with Ku-band payload, developed in a public-private partnership between the European Space Agency (ESA), Eutelsat and Airbus Defence and Space.[18] It had a launch mass of approximately 3,461 kilograms (7,630 lb) and a design lifetime of 15 years.[22]

Star One D2 is a telecommunications satellite equipped with C-, Ku-, Ka- and X-band payloads for high-speed telecommunications, television broadcast and fast broadband in South America, Mexico, Central America, and parts of the Atlantic Ocean.[15] It had a launch mass of approximately 6,190 kilograms (13,650 lb) and a design lifetime of 15 years.[22]

The target orbit was a geosynchronous transfer orbit with an apogee altitude of 250 kilometres (160 mi) and a perigee altitude of 35,726 kilometres (22,199 mi), at an inclination of 3°.[22]

The mission was planned to last 36 minutes and 24 seconds.[22][a]
