This project recreates step by step a list of historical missions using Vega launcher. It contains 1 mission and 2 scenarios.

Vega (Vettore Europeo di Generazione Avanzata, Advanced Generation European Carrier Rocket) is an expendable launch system in use by Arianespace jointly developed by the Italian Space Agency and the European Space Agency. Development began in 1998 and the first launch took place from the Guiana Space Centre on 13 February 2012.

It is designed to launch small payloads — 300 to 2,500 kg satellites for scientific and Earth observation missions to polar and low Earth orbits. The reference Vega mission is a polar orbit bringing a spacecraft of 1,500 kilograms to an altitude of 700 kilometers. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vega_(rocket))

This is the converted version from Orbiter 2010.

:tiphat: super !!

But... bad news for you : the next realease (with tiles from Kourou-2010) is nearly finish.... I hope release it next week. So you'll have to modify again your add-on.... :facepalm: sorry....
( the location of the pads will be definitive this time !!!)

just have a look here :

Every update is an improvement. I will update as many time as needed. I also have to do another 3 scenarios for this mission to be considered complete.

Update for Kourou CSG Base R2

I updated the add-on to be compatible with Kourou CSG Base R2 by JacquesMomo.

Unfortunately, the launch of the Sentinel-2A was in the middle of the night in Kourou so the big improvement in the R2 version of the Kourou CSG Base are not visible. To fully benefit of the R2, I also recommend to set "Date MJD 57196.7" in the "01 - Launch Sentinel-2A.scn" file.
