Vulcain engine designed for Ariane 5 launcher
Vulcain rocket engine. View of a Vulcain rocket motor of the type designed for the Ariane 5 launcher. A single Vulcain is used for the first stage of the Ariane 5, its 900 kN (kilonewton) thrust at sea level being supplemented by solid boosters. Vulcain uses liquid hydrogen (LH2) as a fuel, with liquid oxygen (LOX) as oxidiser. At launch, the motor consumes 225kg of LOX and 36kg of LH2 every second. Steering is performed by gimballing the motor up to 6 degrees from vertical with fine control by two vernier motors (long cylinder on side of nozzle).

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the impressive Vulcain engine, specifically designed for the renowned Ariane 5 launcher. The Vulcain rocket motor, visible in this image, serves as the first stage of the Ariane 5 and boasts a remarkable thrust of 900 kN at sea level. To further enhance its power, solid boosters are employed alongside it. What makes the Vulcain truly exceptional is its choice of fuel. It utilizes liquid hydrogen (LH2) as its propellant and liquid oxygen (LOX) as an oxidizer. During launch, this mighty engine consumes a staggering 225kg of LOX and 36kg of LH2 every second, exemplifying its immense capabilities. Steering is flawlessly executed by gimballing the motor up to an impressive six degrees from vertical position. This precise control is achieved through two vernier motors located on one side of the nozzle—noticeable as long cylinders in this photograph. Captured within SEP factory at Vernon, France, this snapshot offers a glimpse into European Space Agency's groundbreaking technology and innovation. With no mention of commercial use intended for this awe-inspiring creation by Science Photo Library, we can only marvel at humanity's relentless pursuit to conquer new frontiers through space exploration.
