Message to Edit: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	Originally posted by Robert Pearlman on 11-22-2012 08:46 PM According to ESA's [URL=http://www.esa.int/esaCP/SEMMRH91M9H_index_0.html]press summary[/URL]: <BLOCKQUOTE>[i]Ministers secured investments for the detailed definition studies of the new launcher Ariane 6 and the continuation of the development of Ariane 5 ME adapted, with the goal to develop as many commonalities as possible between the two launchers. These activities are funded for two years with a decision on the continuation of both launchers to be taken in 2014.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE> I don't believe this means that Ariane 6 has been approved but they are funding initial studies and are deferring the decision whether to proceed with its development until 2014.
