was responsible for just under 10% of salaried jobs in the overseas department, though there are estimates that as many as 9,000 people are employed directly and indirectly as a result of activities at the spaceport. The Guiana Space Centre (or CSG) is one of the spaceports in the world that receives the most traffic, and it receives large amounts of funding from the European Space Agency (ESA), with the organisation covering around 66% of the spaceport's annual budget, as well as financing new facilities. Indigenous and local activist groups argue that mainland France is only interested in French Guiana as far as the space centre is concerned, and the funding that the space centre receives is symbolic given the inequity in living standards seen between the department and mainland France. For example, despite there being high poverty levels and unemployment rates of over 20% in the department, the cost of living remains high due to a dependence on mainland France for imported food and resources, yet large amounts of funding are invested in the space programme, rather than in public services for the department.

across the entire country, and resonated in mainland France. On 21 March 2017, the launch of an Ariane 5 rocket carrying a Brazilian satellite and a South Korean satellite was prevented due to protesters and workers on strike from the CSG blockading the centre. Further strikes and occupation of the space centre meant that the satellites were not launched until May 2017. Negotiations between the French government and Guianese protesters resulted in a rejection of a €1.1 billion offer made by the French, with the Guianese demanding at least €3 billion in aid. Since the protests, CNES (National Centre for Space Studies), the French government space agency that operates the spaceport, added an additional €10 million to the €40 million it had already pledged to fund economic and social programmes in French Guiana.

Earthworks on the 150 hectare launch site began at the end of June 2015 and was completed at the start of 2016. Four platforms were levelled to accommodate the launch pad, the liquid oxygen and hydrogen tanks and the assembly building. Civil engineering works on the flame trench and other buildings began in the summer of 2016 and ended in 2019. The new launch facility was inaugurated on 28 September 2021 with first flight of the Ariane 6 conducted on 9 July 2024. 2427: 7520: 168: 8723: 8653: 8002: 1070: 1055: 7665: 1025: 7199: 189: 8239: 8866: 8854: 8842: 8270: 8072: 8949: 8937: 8889: 8696: 1085: 8421: 8409: 7788: 7290: 7278: 7266: 7254: 7242: 7223: 7211: 1040: 38: 1580: 7945: 7497: 7165: 4305: 8901: 8742: 7653: 7629: 7617: 6970: 4718: 8617: 8593: 7859: 7688: 7461: 8385: 8520: 8397: 7800: 7764: 7404: 7339: 8484: 8258: 7812: 7776: 7741: 7392: 7129: 8684: 7351: 8605: 8581: 8496: 8361: 8294: 8282: 8227: 7871: 7847: 7824: 7153: 7098: 8665: 7983: 7926: 8433: 8349: 8215: 8203: 8191: 8177: 8165: 7327: 7964: 7141: 7110: 2413: 6994: 8337: 2441: 7907: 7895: 7883: 8558: 7363: 8629: 8445: 8318: 8306: 7473: 7006: 8373: 47: 8925: 8913: 8546: 8534: 8508: 7729: 7700: 7605: 7593: 7574: 6982: 4730: 1275: 3270: 3246: 7315: 995:, Algeria. In 1975, France offered to share Kourou with the ESA, with ESA covering today two thirds of Guiana Space Centre's budget. Commercial launches are also bought by non-European companies.

Before and during launch windows, CSG facility security is significantly enhanced by anti-personnel and anti-aircraft measures, the exact configurations of which are classified by the French military. All entrants to the launch complex are also subject to checks for proof of permission to enter the facility. 2377:
The space sector was responsible for about 15% of French Guiana's GDP in 2014, around half of the 28% it was in 1990. This reduction is mostly due to expansion in other sectors, rather than decreasing space activity. As of 2020, the space sector employed 4,620 people in Guiana, meaning the industry
