(Reuters) – The first commercially operational launch of Europe’s Ariane 6 heavy rocket was postponed for a second time on Monday, operator Arianespace said on its YouTube channel.
The launch, designed to carry a French military observation satellite to orbit, had been due to take place at lunchtime at Europe’s spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, after a previous attempt scheduled for February 26 also had to be called off.
