Gosh, the early days of crewed spaceflight were harrowing.

How so? They are very much behind when it comes to industry innovation and launch cadence. Most launch vehicle innovation currently occurs in the U.S… Europe really needs to step up their game ASAP if they don’t want to be reliant on U.S. launch vehicles.
