@euspa* says they have no idea about the #Ariane6 costs 🤔🙈 https://fragdenstaat.de/dokumente/275068-replytoaccdocrequest-2026-1_geschwaerzt/
Such as
• Standard launch costs for Ariane 6 (per variant)
• The launch price for #Amazon
• The amount of #subsidies 💰 per launch, including and excluding development costs* "charged with advancing the #commercialisation and market uptake of #EU 🇪🇺 Space data and services" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union_Agency_for_the_Space_Programme#Overview
