4·4 months agoYes beautiful!
Rocket fuelled up now , so everything going ahead smoothly…
If it reenables European sovereign and independent access to space it’s a success. Fingers crossed that it’s also as reliably as A5. Commercially I agree.
So launch window start has been shifted by one hour according to my info: 21:00 - 00:00 Amsterdam/Berlin CEST.
Wohoo a proper launch thread. Thank you!
Let’s hope they manage to launch at the beginning of the window.
So for Amsterdam/Berlin timezone that’s starting at 20:00 tonight.
It’s been too long since we had an operational European launcher. I hope Vega C and A6 are available and reliable by the end of the year. There is quite a queue of new missions, several of them already had to be launched with SpaceX.
Some more information in the Guardian:
There is currently no mission planned for her as Australia just paid the training cost when she did not get selected into the ESA astronaut chor.
Australia would also now have to pay for a ride to the ISS. The tourist ticket info I found was about 30 MUSD but that’s including the training I think.
Finds ohne Bild irgendwie noch gruseliger… Kann so bleiben

Nicht das der dann wieder den falschen fürs Foto besteigt, ich bin sicherlich nur bei 6000…
Darum lese ich dieses Unter. Auf den Erkenntnisgewinn erstmal eine passende Flasche öffnen…

Yes, not really the complete picture of what happened.
Would have there been actual damage to the system or even destruction if the software did not shut down? Or was the temperature threshold set too conservative? Did the thermal simulations not match the observed temperatures and if so why?
What’s the solution to this problem now for the next flight?
