New rocket test rig for safe Ariane 6 launches

New rocket test rig for safe Ariane 6 launches
The future European launcher, Ariane 6, will launch into space in 2020. In order for it to bring all its payloads safely to their orbits, its engines must first be thoroughly tested. A test rig is therefore scheduled to be commissioned at Lampoldshausen in 2018.
