Farewell, Ariane 5. It was a pleasure watching you fly. It's a shame you retired so soon. ❤
It’s so fast
Built some toilet 🚽.
What, no fireworks? 😂😂😂
So, Ariane 5 is gone, wondering when ESA will start working with reusable first stages or perhaps innovate even more and try something different?
I love esa rockets acceleration
Wonderfull just wonderfull the end of Ariane 5 and soon the beginning of Ariane 6 and beyond.
