European Launcher Development Organisation

The European Launcher Development Organisation (ELDO) is a former European space research organization. It was first developed in order to establish a satellite launch vehicle for Europe. The three-stage rocket developed was named Europa, after the mythical Greek god. Overall, there were 10 launches that occurred under ELDO’s funding. The organization consisted of Belgium, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands. Australia was an associate member of the organization. Initially, the launch site was in Woomera, Australia, but was later moved to the French site Kourou, in French Guiana. The program was created to replace the Blue Streak Missile Program after its cancellation in 1960. In 1974, after an unsuccessful satellite launch, the program was merged with the European Space Research Organisation to form the European Space Agency.

Origins

After the failure to launch of Britain’s Blue Streak Missile, Britain wished to use its finished space launch parts in order to cut losses. In 1961, Britain and France announced that they would be working together on a launcher that would be capable of sending a one-ton satellite into space. This cooperation was later drafted into the Convention of the European Launcher Development Organization, which Italy, Belgium, West Germany, the Netherlands and Australia would join. Australia, although not a part of Britain, as a member of the British Commonwealth and wartime ally, provided a sparsely populated missile launcher testing and development site at Woomera, South Australia. The original intent of this organization was to develop a space program exclusively for Europe, excluding the UN or any outside country.

Próbowali odnaleźć swój spokój w szczęściu nawzajem
Nie mieli wspólnych marzeń, chociaż od zawsze byli razem.
Jeden niedostępny, pochłonięty wciąż myśleniem,
Drugi ślepy i głuchy, zajęty do przodu pędzeniem.
Czasem ten pierwszy wyciągał dłoń, bo się martwił,
Ten drugi uwierzył, że sobie poradzi sam z tym,
Okiełzna świat, rozum nie może mieć barier,
Uwierzył, że sam da radę, sam będzie swoim światłem.
Pierwszy tupał ze złości, gdy nieodpowiedzialne dziecko
Wiedziało co jest słuszne i tak wybrało szaleństwo.
Zalewał świat łzami, topił w rozpaczy,
Ten drugi robił wciąż źle, mimo wiedzy, że go straci.
Taka ludzka natura, że możemy mieć dobry przykład,
A i tak potrafimy tylko źle wybrać.
Robimy mnóstwo błędów, tracimy głowę dla zmysłów,
Chcemy być coraz mocniejsi, myślimy, że to droga mistrzów.
Ten drugi też tak myślał, czcił swoją wolność,
Od kilku tysięcy lat ciągle mieszkają obok.
Ten pierwszy wskazał mu drogę, pokazał sposób,
Dał środki na to, żeby mogli w końcu spotkać się kiedyś.
Mówił do niego często i spokojnie słuchał,
Wymagał tylko wierności i tylko jego kochał.
Ten drugi kochał życie, chciał być szczęśliwszy niż lepszy,
Myślał o swym przyjacielu tylko, gdy ponosił klęski.
Mówił do niego ze łzami płynącymi z oczu,
Prosił o spokój, by pokazał mu na kryzys sposób.
Ten pierwszy wciąż pomagał, wciąż ufał,
Wciąż dawał mu znaki i pomagał drogi szukać.
Ten drugi, gdy tylko wyschły łzy, robił wszystko by oszukać
I dalej uciekał w swoje sny o chmurach.
Chciałby iść prosto, w drugą stronę prawdy
Nie szukał spokoju, lecz luzu i sławy.
Dziwnie działamy, nie słysząc słów przyjaciół,
Mimo mocy rozumu, nie umiemy pokonać strachu przed samotnością,
Dusi nas makrokosmos, tracimy życia ostrość, psuje nam go pozorna wolność.
Ten drugi dla blasku chwili stracił głowę, pierwszy pełen szczęścia,
