Original Note:
It is misleading to promote the development of Ariane 6 as a "success storyā€¯. The programme has been delayed several times and its budged has doubled compared to the initial estimations. Transparency is crucial as the programme is mainly funded by ESA (taxpayer funds). https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/04/europes-ariane-6-rocket-is-turning-into-a-space-policy-disaster/ https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-elon-musk-replace-stalled-france-rocket-galileo-satellite/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariane_6#Development_funding
