And here it is! "Susie" from @ArianeGroup@Arianespace - making Ariane 6 more flexible for next-generation space infrastructure #IAC2022
7 tonnes back to Earth, and critically, the ability to abort during any phase of the mission *including during powered vertical descent* - not sure that would be the most comfortable experience...
Some fantastic renders of the vehicle, showing some of the flexible architecture features we can expect #IAC2022
And missions will end with a vertical landing, from which abort will be possible during all phases! Looks promising to help Ariane 6 rival other competitors in this area
We're at the IAC with @ConexResearch, a fantastic research organisation determined to make international collaboration as easy as it should be - you can learn more about the team and their next-generation mission concepts here: conexresearch.com
