The farewell flight of Europe’s workhorse Ariane 5 rocket, scheduled for Tuesday, has been postponed for 24 hours due to bad weather, operator Arianespace said.<\/p>\n

The 117th and final flight of an Ariane 5 rocket, after 27 years of launches, had been due to take off between 2130 and 2305 GMT from Europe’s spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana.\n<\/p>\n

“Due to unfavorable winds at high altitude above the Guiana Space Centre, Arianespace decided not to start the final phase of the launch preparation operations,” the French firm said.\n<\/p>\n

The nearest launch window was now between 2200 and 2305 GMT on Wednesday “if weather conditions are favorable”, it added.\n<\/p>\n

The final flight of an Ariane, whose launches have punctuated life in Kourou for nearly three decades, was originally scheduled for June 16.\n<\/p>\n

It was postponed the day before because of problems with pyrotechnical lines in the rocket’s booster. The lines have since been replaced.\n<\/p>\n

The final payload on an Ariane 5 is a French military communications satellite and a German communications satellite.\n<\/p>\n

The arrival in 1996 of the Ariane 5, which was able to carry a far bigger load than its predecessor Ariane 4, allowed Europe to establish itself in the communication satellite market.\n<\/p>\n

It was due to be replaced by the Ariane 6 in 2020 but delays to that next-generation rocket have left Europe without a way to independently launch heavy-load missions into space.<\/p>\n
