[[Engineering:Vega (rocket)|Vega]] is an expendable launch system in use by [[Company:Arianespace|Arianespace]] which was jointly developed by the [[Organization:Italian Space Agency|Italian Space Agency]] (ASI) and the [[Organization:European Space Agency|European Space Agency]] (ESA). Development began in 1998 and the first launch took place from the [[Organization:Guiana Space Centre|Centre Spatial Guyanais]] on 13 February 2012.<ref name="ESAVegaSpecial">{{cite web|url=http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Vega/index.html|title=Vega|publisher=ESA|date=3 February 2012|access-date=14 February 2012}}</ref>

It is designed to launch small payloads — 300 to 2500&nbsp;kg [[Astronomy:Satellite|satellite]]s for scientific and [[Astronomy:Earth observation satellite|Earth observation]] missions to [[Astronomy:Polar orbit|polar]] and [[Astronomy:Low Earth orbit|low Earth]] orbits.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-16956324|title=Vega launcher makes first flight|first=Jonathan|last=Amos|date=13 February 2012|access-date=13 February 2012|agency=BBC News}}</ref> The reference Vega mission is a polar orbit bringing a spacecraft of 1500&nbsp;kg to an altitude of 700&nbsp;km.

The upper module is a [[Engineering:Liquid-propellant rocket|liquid rocket]] called AVUM. The improved version of the P80 stage, the [[Engineering:P120 (rocket stage)|P120C]], will also be used as the side boosters of the [[Engineering:Ariane 6|Ariane 6]].
