Reply to comment by Rocket_wanker in A different perspective on the Vega C failure - It has been a dark week for European spaceflight with the failure of the first operational flight of Vega C by flyingdutchgirll

But I think that's largely due to how Europe manage their space program, NASA with sls doesn't make much better and in Europe we are really adverse to the growth of market competitors like SpaceX, rocket lab, relativity space ecc.

I don't feel it's right to point at Ariane as they're just a contractor that does and bring forward programs decided by ESA
