PARIS: Europe’s top space official said on Tuesday there was “light at the end of tunnel” in efforts to bring the delayed Ariane 6 to the launchpad and restore Europe’s independent access to space.
Europe’s new heavyweight launch vehicle has been delayed by technical glitches, leaving the continent relying on Elon Musk’s SpaceX for some launches until some time in 2024.
