Aaaaand it won't happen today. Ariane 5 rocket’s last launch postponed yet again.
This was to be the one hundred and seventeenth and at the same time the last ever flight of the already legendary Ariane 5 rocket, so it’s no surprise that the eyes of the entire space sector were on the spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, today.
