List of Ariane launches

Rockets from the Ariane family have accumulated 251 launches since 1979, 239 of which were successful, yielding a 95.2% success rate. The currently operational version, Ariane 5, has flown 82 consecutive missions without failure between April 2003 and December 2017, but suffered a malfunction during flight VA-241 in January 2018, causing its two satellites to reach an incorrect orbit, and reducing their predicted lifetime as they consumed some of their own fuel to raise their orbits.

gollark: Also, due to parasitic capacitanceoforms, my code won't run unless you have a wire plugged into an unconnected arbitrary region of one of the breadboards.
gollark: And at very high clock rates, electromagnetic interference issues in some of the address lines can cause the wrong regions of memory to be read, in somewhat predictable and exploitable ways.
gollark: For instance, via [REDACTED], it's able to reflash parts of the EEPROM while running.
gollark: Oh, tons.
gollark: It's too late, I already reverse-engineered ridiculously specific details of the processor via extrapolating from your current messages about it and GTech™️ orbital scans via our future prediction engines, then wrote code which does cool things but is highly dependent on weird implementation quirks.
