The reason seems to be the complexity of Herschel, according news page of the ESA : No final decision yet for the launch day of the Planck satellite, which will be released along with the telescope Herschel on board the Ariane. The forecast was a launch in mid-April, in particular the 16th, but no date was postponed The Herschel telescope mirror, the largest ever to Be Launched in space, is a novel and advanced concept using silicon carbide petals brazed 12 together Into a single piece, it is one of the major Technological highlights of the mission. The Complexity of the structure and Its uniqueness Means Must Be taken great care to Ensure That stress exerted on it DURING launch Are well understood.
Over the next Few Days, a panel of independent experts led by the ESA Inspector General and Arianespace will carry out a final cross-check of the documentation to Demonstrate That the required safety margins for the telescope Are met.
The new launch date Will Be Shortly defined.
