The Europa rocket was an early expendable launch system of the European Launcher Development Organisation (ELDO) which was the precursor to the European Space Agency and its Ariane family of launchers. Europa was built to develop space access technology and put European-wide telecommunication and meteorological satellites in orbit. The rocket primarily consisted of Blue Streak Coralie and Astris rocket stages.
