The
European Space Agency (ESA) has awarded
Avio a contract to develop a new version of the Vega launch vehicle, Vega-E. The contract, announced July 23, is worth 118.8 million euros ($140 million). ESA did not announce when the rocket variation would be ready for flight.
Vega is Europe’s light launcher that operates from Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana. Vega-E will use building blocks from the Vega-C launcher, which is slated for first flights in 2022.
Vega-E will feature a completely new upper stage, featuring a new low-cost liquid-fuelled engine. It will also have three stages, while Vega-C which has four. Two stages will be derived from Vega-C: the first stage P120C solid rocket motor which provides the thrust at liftoff and the second stage solid rocket Zefiro-40 motor. The new third stage is the liquid oxygen–methane cryogenic upper stage which is the core of Vega-E preparation.
The
European Space Agency (ESA) is investing approximately 90 million euros ($106 million) into a developmental contract with
ArianeGroup that will give its Ariane 6 rocket a new kick stage. The kick stage, called ‘Astris,’ will allow Ariane 6 to perform complex orbital transfers in multiple orbits, including Low-Earth Orbit (LEO), and support deep space exploration missions for Europe.
ArianeGroup’s facilities in Germany will take on a majority of work on Astris’ development and design. The new kick stage can be mounted as an optional add-on to Ariane 6’s upper stage. Astris and its propellant tanks will be based on a modular architecture that can be configured to a wider set of payload needs. The kick stage can also interface directly with the Ariane 6 rocket’s payload.
