🇪🇺 It’s not clear if European launchers can secure commercial demand from within #Europe to satisfy future launch goals.
Even European launchers—built under the guise of “sovereignty”—are finding themselves more attracted to #US 🇺🇸 customers. All three #Ariane6 flights this year have taken satellites for the #Amazon Leo constellation to orbit https://payloadspace.com/europe-expands-its-launch-opportunities-to-new-companies/

#Ariane's $96 million launch price, although apparently competitive with #SpaceX's, actually masks 🕵️ a much higher #LaunchCost, made affordable only through subsidies 💰 https://www.fool.com/investing/2026/05/02/europe-still-cant-compete-with-spacex-launch-price/

The Angry Astronaut
@angryastro.bsky.socialAfter too many stops and starts, ESA has finally signed several huge checks, worth over half a billion euros, to get private spaceflight into orbit!
But will it work?The players are RFA, Isar, PLD and MaiaSpace! France, Germany and Spain!

An MTG-I2 satellite launches on Ariane 6, completing Europe’s new weather satellite constellation.
The launch of MTG-I2 from French Guiana completes the first trio of Meteosat Third Generation satellites, delivering high-resolution data and images every 2.5 minutes to transform weather forecasting and early warnings of extreme events.

Während ich wegen Darmspiegelung und 2l Mineralwasserlösung ständig auf der Toilette abhänge, melden Nachrichten und erfreulich viele Posts den geglückten Start VA270 des Wettersatelliten aus Bremen ( OHB). Bild hier ist der Raketenfrachter Canopee schon für den nächsten Start VA271 mit der nächsten Bremer Oberstufe an Bord. #Ariane6 #Astrium #raumfahrt

"So basically the developers of a dead horse who shunned reusability ♻️ still need more tax payers’ money to make their business case work. Even ‘commercial’ launches such as for the #Amazon constellation are reported to be costing the #taxpayer 32 mil. per launch*"

Während SpaceX wieder Schlagzeilen macht, hat Europa gestern still & heimlich Geschichte geschrieben:
🚀 Sentinel-1D erfolgreich gestartet auf Ariane 6. Europäische Rakete. Europäischer Satellit. Europäische Daten.
Und das Beste? Alle Daten sind kostenlos, offen und frei zugänglich.
Keine Paywall. Keine Vendor Lock-ins. Einfach Wissenschaft für alle.
Wer braucht schon Elon, wenn man Copernicus hat? 😉
