🇪🇺 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/

@EdwinG We saw the plume (venting of remaining propellant) high in the sky, North of West. We were near Rivière Bleue (where #Quebec, #Maine, and #NewBrunswick all meet) and happened to be outside watching for Perseids. Bright like the #Megantic photo, maybe 3/4 the size of the Moon's disk. Weird!
