Arianespace achieved another commercial milestone with today's Ariane 5 launch, which was the vehicle's 33rd consecutive success and its fifth flight in 2009 bringing total payloads orbited by the company this year to seven telecommunications satellites, two deep space telescopes and two piggyback spacecraft. Ariane 5's mission with Amazonas 2 and COMSATBw-1 was the 191st launch of an Ariane family vehicle. This latest mission carried the Amazonas 2 civilian relay platform for Spain's HISPASAT and the German COMSATBw-1 secure military communications satellite, demonstrating the capability of Arianespace to match up diverse spacecraft on Ariane 5's trademark dual-passenger launches.
