SOYUZ’ MOBILE LAUNCH GANTRY TAKES SHAPE AT THE SPACEPORT

Preparations for the introduction of Arianespace’s Soyuz missions from French Guiana have entered a new phase with assembly startup for the launcher’s mobile service gantry at the Spaceport. The 52-meter-tall gantry will be one of the main differences from Soyuz’ other launch sites at Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan and Plesetsk Cosmodrome in Russia.
