Space Café Radio - The sins of Ariane - with Prof. Patrizia Caraveo

Space Café Radio

In this latest episode of Space Café Radio, our editor in chief Emma Gatti converses with guest Patrizia Caraveo, research director at the Italian Institute of Astrophysics (INAF) about Europe's challenges within the space industry.
The conversation revolves around the recent news of the EU commissioning the launch of part of its Galileo's satellites to SpaceX, due to lack of European heavy launchers. The European space programs are falling behind due to lack of investment in reusable rockets, economical sustainability of heavy launches, and policy mistakes related to past managerial decisions. Will Europe be able to catch up, and amend?
