Is 2024 finally the year?

remains on track, targeting a launch window between June 15 and July 31, 2024

Vulcan made it, now time for Starship and Ariane 6.

I hope so. European launch vehicles are kind of in shambles right now. Soyuz is unavailable due to war, the last Vega tanks were accidentally thrown away, and Vega C has upper stage teething issues. Hopefully Ariane 6 can break the streak of misfortunes.
