EU commissioner calls for higher European launch rates
Original: EU commissioner focuses on increasing European launch rates
The EU commissioner responsible for space is pushing to increase the rate of rocket launches in Europe, a bid to strengthen the continent's independent access to space. The focus comes as Europe's launch sector faces pressure to keep pace with competitors like SpaceX and to reduce reliance on foreign providers for satellite deployments.
Why now: Europe's limited launch capacity and growing competition from US and Chinese providers have made independent space access a pressing policy issue.
