ESA reported that it had successfully tested injectors for the five Ariane engines to be used in the L03 flight, now scheduled for the latter part of June. The L03 vehicle could carry a tech capsule to monitor equipment and environment; a second flight model of the Meteosat 2 aimed at putting ESA into the Earth-observation field; and an India communications satellite known as Apple (Ariane passenger-payload experiment) at Kourou, French Guiana.
