The reference to Ariane 5 dual launch capability is missing. There are two dual-launch structures: [SYLDA-5 and SPELTRA]. The former sits inside the faring, the latter forms the lower faring section itself. This is more relevant now than the obsolete earlier Ariane equivalent.

Replaced the following with a link to Ariadne:

Greek mythological women who help Thésé to find the end of the labyrinth of the king Minos. She gives her a wire called the 'Ariane wire' to mark the way from the entrance.

[edit] Model

Hello There is a model (scale 1/1) of the Ariane 5 at "Le musée de l'air et de l'aviation" in Paris. Of course it is not a real detailled model, but it gives you a good idea of the demission.

Isn't in the Musée de l'air et de l'espace at Le Bourget, near Paris ? Rama
