Video: P5.2 test facility for the Ariane 6 upper stage at DLR in Lampoldshausen
Flexible, adaptable and cost-efficient - with the new P5.2 upper stage test stand, the DLR site in Lampoldshausen is expanding its portfolio for all liquid-fueled, chemical space propulsion systems in Europe. To ensure that all payloads can be safely launched into orbit, the engines of the new Ariane 6 launch vehicle must first undergo extensive testing. An important step in the testing of the upper stage of the new launcher took place on February 26, 2019. The new P5.2 test stand was officially inaugurated on the DLR site in Lampoldshausen.
