Despite setbacks in getting its new heavy-lift rocket off the ground, Europe still has bold dreams about future space transportation.
The latest delay was caused by several factors, including the introduction of a new power unit and delays in testing and in the development of robotic arms that assist on the launch pad during rocket fueling, Daniel Neuenschwander, ESA's director of space transportation, said in the press conference.

Despite the setbacks, the French company Arianespace, which operates the Kourou spaceport and sells launches from the site, sees increasing demand for Ariane 6's services in the coming decade.
