November 26, 2010 - Kourou Space Center. The fifth Arianespace mission of 2010 orbited two telecommunications payloads today: one for an emerging new player in the broadband marketplace; and the other for a long-time customer that is the world's leading provider of fixed satellite services. Lifting off this afternoon from the Spaceport's ELA 3 launch zone in French Guiana, the heavy-lift Ariane 5 deployed its Intelsat 17 and HYLAS 1 passengers during a daytime mission lasting 49 minutes. It was the 54th mission for the workhorse Arianespace vehicle and the 198th flight of an Ariane family launcher.
