Located in the Kourou region of French Guiana, Tiger Station is one of the core support areas of the Guiana Space Center, the European Space Launch Center. As a French overseas region, French Guiana is located in the north of South America, next to the Atlantic Ocean, and its equatorial climate provides ideal conditions for space launches. The Tigre station is responsible for key functions such as spacecraft assembly, testing, fuel replenishment and logistical support, and is an important hub for Ariane rockets and new spacecraft before launch. It not only gathers scientific research teams from the European Space Agency, but also attracts global space companies, promoting local science and technology and economic development. At the same time, the tropical rainforest ecosystem around the station provides a unique sample for environmental science research, becoming a meeting point between space exploration and ecological protection.
