A new date has not been set. \n\nIt has come to light that there is a risk to the redundancy of a critical function on the Ariane 5. Consistent with safety requirements\, Arianespace has decided to postpone the roll-out of the #VA261 launch vehicle.\nAnalyses are underway to determine a new launch date. \n— Arianespace (@Arianespace) June 15\, 2023 \n \nOriginal entry: Arianespace will launch the last Ariane 5 rocket from the Guiana Space Centre in Kourou\, French Guiana on June 16\, 2023. The launch window is open from 6:26-8:01 pm local time (5:26-7:01 pm EDT). \nThe rocket will launch two communications satellites: the Heinrich-Hertz-Satellit for the German Space Agency\, and the Syracuse 4B satellite for the French Ministry of Defence.  It is the 117th flight of Ariane 5. \nAriane 5 will be replaced by Ariane 6 in coming months. \nESA TV will broadcast the launch beginning at 22:55 CEST (4:55 pm EDT)
