Ariane Flight VA219

Arianespace’s Flight VA219 uses the Ariane 5 ES version of this heavy-lift workhorse, which will ascend from the ELA-3 launch complex at Europe’s Spaceport.
.
Arianespace’s latest resupply mission for the International Space Station has entered its final countdown phase at the Spaceport, advancing preparations for tonight’s Ariane 5 liftoff with a record-setting Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV) payload.
During a flight lasting one hour and four minutes – which includes multiple burns of the launcher’s EPS storable propellant upper stage – this ATV will be deployed into a circular orbit at an altitude of 260 kilometers, inclined 51.6 degrees.
Ariane 5’s liftoff from the Spaceport is set at precisely 8:47:38 p.m. local time in French Guiana, which has been calculated for its orbital phasing to rendezvous with the International Space Station.
The ATV – named after Belgian physicist Georges Lemaître – will be the heaviest-ever payload orbited by Ariane 5, with a liftoff mass greater than 20 metric tons. ATV Georges Lemaître is Europe’s fifth, and final, Automated Transfer Vehicle for servicing of the crewed orbital facility.
Arianespace’s latest ATV mission in support of International Space Station operations is designated Flight VA219 in the company’s numbering system, and will utilize an Ariane 5 ES version of the heavy-lift workhorse.
Managed by the European Space Agency, the ATV program is part of Europe’s contribution to the International Space Station’s operation. The Automated Transfer Vehicle’s prime contractor is Airbus Defence and Space, which also has the role as Ariane 5 industrial architect.

The Ariane 5 with its ATV Georges Lemaître payload is shown at the Spaceport’s ELA-3 launch zone, ready for liftoff on Arianespace’s fifth resupply flight to support the International Space Station.

FLIGHT VA219 - ATV Georges Lemaître 
60th successful Ariane 5 mission in a row
The European Space Agency's fifth and last Automated Transfer Vehicle, the ATV Georges Lemaître, was successfully launched from the Guiana Space Center.
Arianespace has successfully launched the ATV-5 Georges Lemaître cargo vessel, which will play a vital role in ferrying supplies to the International Space Station (ISS). The launch took place on July 29 at 08: 47: 38 pm (local time) from the Guiana Space Center in French Guiana. This marked the 60th successful mission in a row for Ariane 5 since 2003, which is a record for launchers on the commercial market, clearly reflecting the excellence of the European space transport industry in support of international space programs.
