Successful lift-off for #Ariane6!๐Yesterday, the new Ariane launcher dazzled us and reached low Earth orbit (LEO) ๐คฉ
Congratulations to @ArianeGroup,
@Arianespace, @CNES and @esa , who after years of work, are providing a brand new launcher and renewed European sovereign access to space.
The first steps of historic journeys are never perfect, but what's important is to keep working towards success, and European sovereign access to space. We support @arianegroup and @arianeespace, and we will continue working with our partner @esa to reach our goal. We are looking forward to seeing what the future holds for European space alongside Ariane 6!

Welcome to ESA, ๐ธ๐ฎ!
It has been quite an impressive journey for Slovenia, and this signature testifies to the sustained commitment of its successive governments both to space activities and to ESA.
While the official accession to full ESA Member State will take place in January 2025, it is clear that we are entering a new era in the long-running relationship between ESA and Slovenia, with a transition period as New Member State to facilitate a successful integration. @vladaRS @MGTS_gov
Slovakia (๐ธ๐ฐ) has officially signed the Artemis Accords!

๐ Euclid has delivered yet again...
Today, we release five never-before-seen, stunning images of galaxies and celestial phenomena provided by our Euclid telescope. They reveal an abundance of new science enabling scientists to hunt for rogue planets, use lensed galaxies to study matter, explore the evolution of our Universe and more.
