A European Vega rocket with a Ukrainian engine launched a Moroccan earth remote sensing satellite into a sun-synchronous earth orbit on Wednesday. The launch from France’s Guiana Space Center was about the 30th since 2013 using engines made by Dnipro’s Yuzmash. Last year, Yuzmash signed a contract with Italy’s Avio SpA to supply engines for Vega rockets through 2020.
