Ariane 6 Launching CSO-3 Military Satellite

What a pleasure for me to unveil a new space painting this morning! The second stage of an Ariane 6 rocket is placing the French CSO-3 military observation satellite into low orbit! A launch eagerly awaited by the DGA and the Ministry of the Armed Forces. This painting was made and completed last month to serve as the main cover for the second issue of SPACE International magazine, the new French magazine dealing with space issues at Areion Group. A big thank you to them for their unwavering confidence in my ability to make a painting of this scale which, I hope, will attract your attention in the press kiosks !
