> If it flies and delivers stuff into the space, even at higher prices, its a huge success. Why do people keep repeating this nonsense. The goals of the project were outlined in 2014 when the project was greenlit. If anybody back then had suggested that 'If it flies and delivers stuff into the space, even at higher prices, its a huge success.' They would have been laughed out of the room. It directly contradicts the whole rational for the Ariane 6 that made it politically viable. If what you say was true, then Europe would be flying the Ariane 5 ME and developing a reusable launch vehicle of the future right now. You are just repeating ESA and Arianespace PR spin, when around 2020 it was clear their 2014 justification were nonsense, the just changed their PR and everybody just repeats it no matter that it directly contradicts the actual rational that was outlined for Ariane 6 in 2014.
