GO EUROPE !!!!!!!!!!

[drsheikhjunior]

very good for europe for making there own space agency...

@Belongtanick

Nope, Airbus was a conglomeration of French (37,9%) German (37,9%) British (20%) and Spanish (4,2%) Companies. Around 2000, Aerospatiale, DASA and CASA became EADS holding 80% on Airbus while BAe sold its share to EADS in 2006. And no, ESA was never known as the "French Space Agency".

@anableps67360 Erm... close but no. Airbus is a comglomeration of British and French companies. Should France choose to pull out then they face massive financial losses just as the British would if they chose to. For years ESA has been known as the French Space Agency anyway. As to Europe needing French technology, the last time I checked most of my electronic equipment in my house was manufactured in the far East. Admittedly I do have a Philips tv but they are a Dutch company.

france don't need europe for building planes rockets or militar jets but europe needs french technology.without france airbus esa arianespace would never exist.

@DeutschlandLiebeIch.french guyana is a french departement.kourou is in france and in france people speaks french.samely as in the states they're speaking english and in germany german.also kourou arianespace is in france then they're speaking french.normal.here capital of arianespace (ariane rocket):Country Capital :Belgium 3.15% , Denmark 0.01% ,France 60.12% ,Germany 18.62%

, Italy 9.36% ,Netherlands 1.82% ,Norway  0.10% ,Spain 2.01% ,Sweden 2.30% ,Switzerland 2.51.

Hey NASA, the ESA are looking at a new heavy lift rockt, want to come and help? Great video of a great rocket!

Thus, the universal vehicle will contains: 1).-the body strenght frame; 2).-the thermonuclear controlled reactor; 3).-coolling devices; 4).-reactive electromagnetic motors for drive force and for orientation. At this vehicle, with the steering-wheel or separate commands aid, we direct motors' traction force on any displacement way. The possibilitiys of adaptation and using such vehicles are unlimited in any domain: transport, energy, mining, agriculture,building, dwellings...

The test for nuclear fusion realisation on Tokamak's installations and with LASER cannot bring anything new for the energetics' future. I bind the thermonuclear controlled reactor schedule by the Sun model , by the reactive electromagnetic motor schedule from Palenque stone's tombe. You see the my project for thermonuclear controlled reactor.

I had thinked a proposal of realisation to one universal vehicle, good on Earth but and in cosmos. The source of energy is a thermonuclear controlled reactor, and the traction is realized through a set of reactive electromagnetic motors. The realization of these, impose a revision and elucidation to some parts from the actual science, which is strangled of the theoretical physics with a series of metaphysical laws and principles.

@NiamOfAsuras No. I'm pointing out that China's energy spending is so enormous that the renewable energy portion is larger than anywhere in the world. Renewable energy spending is also of a higher proportion than most other countries in the world. Any idiot can grasp that. At the rate of growth, their coal will last centuries. At current consumption with no growth, it would last millenia.
