PARIS, Sept 4 — European space officials said today they face crucial timing decisions in the coming weeks on the return to flight of Europe’s flagship space launchers following a series of delays.

ESA Director General Josef Aschbacher declined to commit to a full launch in the first half of next year, but told reporters results so far pointed to a test debut “not too late” in 2024, followed by the first commercial mission about 6 months later.
