[m0livi]

[dameion75]

Awesome vid thanks for sharing :-)

[MegaRoutier]

Great music! Who is this artist?

[saphirbln]

[pffffff83]

Je ne me lasse jamais de voir ces vidéos. MAGNIFIQUE

[Godclash]

please tell us the music's name!

Hello, how many times did you increased the speed ? Txs for answer.

Awesome upload. This video demonstrates that scientific knowledge isn't the only thing we acquire from space exploration; there's also an immeasurable aesthetic appeal. Seeing Earth in profile here must be one of the most stunning and beautiful things I've ever seen. It shows exactly how far we've come as a species.

Two things: the Ariane 5 only travels to LEO, does it not? What is the final altitude? Also, who is the artist who composed the ambient music?

[blablubb12345]

@FrigidNorthlanderMN

Most Ariane 5 missions go to a geostationary transfer orbit (250km x 36,000km) but it has also launched earth escape missions like Rosetta (to comet 67P/Tschurjumow-Gerasimenko) or the Herschel and Planck space telescopes to the second lagrangian point and will place the James Webb Space Telescope at this same spot. So the final altitude would be "infinite", if you want ;-)

beautiful.

I love the music: captures the feel of the view very well...

lol didnt know there was an synthesizer onboard the shuttle. ( 1:00 ) just kidding. this was a beautiful video. i wish more of my friends appreciated this kind of event.

[trollolololololo]

@bmayn4444 this isn't the shuttle. It's the Ariane 5 rocket, used for (as far as we know) unmanned payloads.

[123jogger123]

Nice video (though it is accelerated bei x2).

Anyone an idea why Ariane 5 is rolling slowly after fairing separation? Is there a reason for this?

[dirtbsas]

se dieron cuenta que en el minuto numero 4 se puede ver algo pasar por detras.. de la nave.. para mi que es un OVNI

[Orbionnicle]

That's just beautiful. Didn't know it went that high that fast. How high will it be after 4 minutes?

[dirtbsas]

VISTE ESO ALOS 4 MIN...

[jxdigital]

@Orbionnicle This video was indeed increased in speed. After 4 minutes in real world, it will be around 126 km altitude.

TAKE THAT FLAT EARTH SOCIETY!

Mcdonald est un hamburger....

[sadekgheidan]

How long does it take for this thing to reach supersonic velocity?

[jxdigital]

@sadekgheidan In real word, Ariane 5 reaches supersonic ( = 340 m/s = 0.34 km/s) velocity 50 seconds after launch. Acceleration continues to an astonishing velocity of 27900 km/h = 7.75 km/s for a circular orbit at 250 km altitude.

[sadekgheidan]

@jxdigital Thanks for the info, did not know that.

So its ceiling is at around 250km?

How about the Space Shuttle? I remember reading somewhere that its ceiling was 600KM+.

IT--

[moikaman]

Bello !!!!

[laikros]

thats some fucking awsome footage!

[meshugeah]

wild ride, yeeehaaaww :)

[TheCombineoverwatch]

i love how peaceful it is.

[caseman86]

any chance to see a space-travelling-able ship in the next 50 years? =(  plasma engine or smth.

some of us simply NEED to escape from the stupidity of this world.

[markmn125]

i wish i could fly into orbit in less than 3 minutes

[GeneralDisarray1892]

get a big rocket and hold on tight :P

[McdonaldSpecial]

they release the nose cone so low, it wont burn up, it'll just fall down and hit someone on the head. kinda dangerous.

[MrBUDDYBOY26]

they already know somthing like that could happen thats they release them over the sea

they fall there and they go pick them up and re-use the..come on do think there dumb they are scientist stupid....... :()

[superboodestroyer]

@McdonaldSpecial no, it falls on the atlantic ocean

[ajpianoman]

this is seriously awesome. It's amazing how quickly they get up there...

[camilleri63]

Impressive - thanks jxdigital :)

[borland08]

very nice point of view

[SvenVaeth23]

sehr schön....

danke für den upload......

[Feexer007]

Its not actually 4 min coz this video was increased in speed

[Dinofan137]

Wow ! 4 minutes to go in space ! Impressive !

[Schwarze24]

What STS is it?

of ARIANE MISSION?

[TGAcodes]

would be much better without the terrible music. no offense.

[blobrana]

Good upload
