An assigned mission of guaranteeing independent access to space for Europe
A goal of being a leader in commercial space transport
Orbit satellites for all types of space-based applications: telecommunications, navigation, science, Earth observation, technology demonstrations, etc.
The global benchmark for launches to geostationary transfer orbit (GTO); 109 launches, 225 satellites orbited.
Versatile, and especially well-suited to the deployment of constellations; 25 launches from the Guiana Space Center since 2011, and 29 from the Russian cosmodromes of Baikonur and Vostochny, via Starsem (241 satellites orbited).
Ideally suited for the launch of Sun-synchronous Earth observation satellites; 17 launches, 94 satellites orbited.
