Reply to comment by araujoms 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

The fact that others have done it, in our world, doesn't make every problem solved for everyone, because others largely don't share information on space technology.

Arianespace itself has plenty of experience with solid rockets. It's no excuse.

I suspect the Vega team (20 launches, 18 successful) shared data with the Vega-C team... same team, with a decade of flight experience.
