Arianespace’s Vega rocket failed during the launch of the Falcon Eye-1 spacecraft for the United Arab Emirates. The launch has been delayed by several days due to unacceptable upper-level winds. Tuesday’s attempt, however, launched without any weather concerns at the top of the window that opened at 01:53 (UTC) on Wednesday (10:53:03 local time on Tuesday) from the European Spaceport in French Guiana. However, the mission was lost at the point of second stage flight.
