A year after orbiting the first six OneWeb satellites, Arianespace has launched another batch – involving 34 satellites this time – to help its customer offer global Internet access to all.

Arianespace will carry out 19 more Soyuz launches – along with the Ariane 62 version’s first flight – at the service of OneWeb, with these flights performed from three different space centers and occurring primarily during 2020 and 2021.

Today’s mission was the 50th Soyuz launch operated by Arianespace and Starsem, as well as the second successful mission for Arianespace in 2020.
