🚀 Behind Europe’s next-generation launcher, there are people, places, and precision. Tonight, a French-language documentary takes viewers inside the industrial adventure of Ariane 6, with rare behind-the-scenes access to the women and men of ArianeGroup. Filmed over four months as part of the Génie Français series, the documentary follows our #RocketMakers across five major industrial sites, from launcher assembly and engine production to booster manufacturing and maritime transport. Through on-site footage and first-hand testimonies, it highlights the collective expertise, technical excellence and shared commitment behind Europe’s heavy-launcher – and the human stories powering it. 📺 Monday, January 19 at 9:10 pm (CET) on RMC Découverte 📡 TNT Channel 24 🎬 Documentary in French #SpaceIndustry #ChoosePassion

We are delighted to announce that the Board of Directors of ArianeGroup has appointed Christophe Bruneau as Chief Executive Officer, effective April 1, 2026. He will succeed Martin Sion, whose departure was announced on October 8, 2025. Christophe has more than 25 years of international leadership experience in the space and defense industries, especially in France and Germany. He currently serves as Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Military Engines Division at Safran Aircraft Engines. Matthieu Louvot, Chairman of ArianeGroup’s Board of Directors, said: “With his deep knowledge of the space and defense industries and expertise in industrial collaboration programs, especially in a French-German context, Christophe Bruneau is the ideal candidate to lead ArianeGroup. I would like to thank Martin Sion for his dedication and exemplary leadership over the past three years, during which we saw the successful launch of Ariane 6 and the operational deployment of the M51.3.” Christophe will join our team of #RocketMakers at a time when the industrial ramp-up of Ariane 6 and preparations for the future of both civil and military programs remain major priorities for ArianeGroup.

🚀 What if satellites were to stop working? No wake up alarms, no weather reports or GPS… we rely much more than we think on the satellites that are working tirelessly above our heads.

The International Paris Air Show 2025 continues to offer powerful moments of cooperation, innovation and political engagement around Europe’s space ambitions. 🚀 Here are the highlights from yesterday: #PAS25 #WorkInSpace #SpaceIndustry #DefenceIndustry

On our indoor booth (Space Hub A16) : discover our Launcher family, Defence solutions, and Equipment & Services porfolio. On our external area (Outdoors B3) : space surveillance and navigation live demonstrations On GIFAS "Avion des métiers" careers area #PAS25

Throughout the decades we have always prioritised cross-fertilisation and synergy between the civil and military domains for the best results in both. Space should be used for the betterment of life on Earth, supporting prosperity and sovereignty. #PAS25 #ParisAirShow

✨ Best wishes for 2025! As we begin this new chapter, ArianeGroup is more ready than ever to meet the challenges that lie ahead. An adventure that would not be possible without our teams, our partners and you, our committed community. Thank you for your unwavering support! 🌌

It’s incredible to compare real-life rockets to science-fiction dreams. Which ship do you think could actually coexist with Ariane 6 in space? Let’s hear your thoughts! 🌌

What’s the main difference between Ariane 5 and Ariane 6? 🤔 🔹 Booster modularity: Ariane 6 can have 2 or 4 boosters. This flexibility lets us adapt liftoff thrust to the payload, optimising each mission for the satellites and their target orbits.
