What happens in Vega didn't stay in Vega, as key rocket parts went missing
Briefly

The European Spaceflight newsletter reports that two of the four propellant tanks on the fourth stage of the Vega rocket-the upper stage, which is powered by dimethylhydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide fuel-went missing earlier this year.
It's the kind of mission the Vega rocket was created for. First launched in 2012, the Vega rocket has a lift capacity of a little more than 2 metric tons to low-Earth orbit.
