Description

When the ARIANE Programme was decided, it took knowledge of the EUROPA launch Vehicle development experience.
What was wrong in the first Europe attempt to built a high performance launch vehicle in order to get it’s own autonomy to space access? Certainly not the technology nor the technical skillfulness. What was in fact the main source of all the difficulties encountered with EUROPA was a lack of management, a lack of coordination, a lack of leadership in all the programme aspects.
