MODERATORS
As a European, Europe is just not a spacefaring continent, let's be honest. We contribute a lot to science, but without US and Russia we'd barely get to space. At least the way it's currently organized and funded. The launch cadence of Ariane rockets vs Soyuz, Falcon is just not comparable
your comment has been reported to the competent authority of the Interplanetary European Empire, an IEE official will contact you soon for reprisal
I mean, most of Russia's population is in the continent of Europe, even if launches tend to happen in Asia.
