Giugiaro Design styled the graphic for European Space Agency’s new small launch wehicle, Vega which, in 2012, made its maiden launch.<\/p>\n

Vega<\/b> is designed to complement the family of European<\/b> launchers<\/b> already available from French Guiana<\/b> with the Ariane 5 heavy-lift launch system <\/b>and the Soyuz medium-class launcher <\/b>introduced last October.<\/p>\n

Vega<\/b> is a three-stage solid-propellant vehicle <\/b>with a liquid-propellant manoeuvrable injection module<\/b> sized primarily to loft payloads<\/b> of up to 1500 kg into polar low-Earth orbits <\/b>at an altitude of 700 km. Its main objective is to provide Europe with a safe<\/b>, reliable<\/b>, competitive<\/b> and efficient capacity <\/b>for scientific<\/b> and Earth observation payloads<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Vega<\/b> will accommodate a wide range of missions \u2013 from 300 kg to 2500 kg \u2013 into a wide variety of orbits<\/b>, from equatorial<\/b> to Sun-synchronous<\/b>. It can also carry single<\/b> or multiple payloads <\/b>depending on mission requirements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
