EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the remarkable evolution of the Ariane series of European launchers, a testament to mankind's relentless pursuit of space exploration. Starting from the left, we witness the birth of this extraordinary family with Ariane 1, which took its maiden flight on December 24th, 1979. Next in line is Ariane 2, an upgraded version that soared into the skies for the first time on May 31st, 1986. However, it is Ariane 3 that truly catches our attention at the center of this masterpiece. With its two solid rocket boosters and inaugural flight on August 4th, 1984, it symbolizes a pivotal moment in Europe's space journey. Moving towards modernity but still holding onto its roots is Ariane 4 - seen here in its impressive variant known as "44L" - boasting four liquid-fueled boosters and making history with its first flight on June 15th, 1988. Finally, standing tall at far right is none other than Ariane 5. This radical design revolutionized space travel with two colossal solid boosters and was poised to embark upon its inaugural flight around mid-1996. It is awe-inspiring to acknowledge that each year approximately half of all commercial satellite launches worldwide are made possible by these magnificent European creations. As we gaze upon this artwork courtesy of Science Photo Library and immerse ourselves in their beauty and significance within humanity's quest for knowledge beyond Earth's boundaries
