#Aschbacher plans to scale up 📈 production of the #Ariane6. Ministers would have to make investments in factories and other logistics to increase rocket production. Would it be worth doing that to meet growing commercial demand if the only way to attract that demand is to heavily #subsidize 💰 the price of its launch vehicle ?

#Amazon has ordered six additional launches on Europe's #Ariane6. The deal brings the number of Ariane launches commissioned by Amazon to 24 by 2031 https://www.reuters.com/business/media-telecom/europes-ariane-wins-amazon-boost-space-gathering-2026-09-09/

#Aschbacher has publicly confirmed that the European governments will need to subsidize each launch with between 32 million and 38 million euros per flight.

If we amortize the development costs, taxpayers have put more than 100 million euros 💰 into each launch before the customer pays anything https://arstechnica.com/space/2026/08/europe-cancels-planned-upgrades-for-ariane-6-rocket

#ESA boss tires of being dragged around by #NASA mood swings
ESA Director General #Aschbacher warned of dependence on third parties for programs including human spaceflight. ESA removed reliance on Russia for missions such as ExoMars, turbulence in US space policy has given the agency pause for thought.
In 2025, insider referred to NASA as "an abusive spouse who could lash out at any moment in unpredictable ways." In 2026, Aschbacher's patience appears to be running out.

‘You cannot live without space in 20 years’: What does the future of Europe’s economy look like?

“20 years ago, nobody would have ever imagined the dimension of what the internet brings today for daily life and I think space is in a similar situation,” Josef Aschbacher, director general of the European Space Agency, told Euronews' The Big Question.

The new #Ariane 6 rocket, which is running four years late ⏳ and still hasn't flown, should be the last #LaunchVehicle developed by #ESA, which will launch a competition of #launchers without weight class limitations. The field of startup launch companies in #Europe 🇪🇺 includes German 🇩🇪 firms like #HyImpulse, #RocketFactory Augsburg, and #IsarAerospace; British 🇬🇧 companies such as #Skyrora and #Orbex; and Spain's 🇪🇸 #PLDSpace. #ESA will use around 75 million euros 💰 to pay for the early stages of the #cargo 📦 challenge, which #Aschbacher expects will result in three companies competing with one another https://arstechnica.com/space/2023/11/after-the-sting-of-ariane-6-europe-finally-embraces-commercial-rockets/
