The third launch of our handcrafted space launch vehicle Nuriho is now less than 7 hours away.
This is the first time that a practical satellite that will actually do a mission in space has been loaded.
We connect reporters at the Naro Space Center.
Reporter Dayoung Moon, how is the atmosphere on set?
◀ Reporter ▶
Yes, this is the entrance to the Naro Space Center.
Lake Nuri is about 3km away from here.
Except for the control area, this is the closest to Nuri Lake.
As you can see, the weather, a variable that affects the launch, is good.
Although there are many clouds, there is no possibility of lightning and no rain forecast.
It is said that the high winds that can affect Nuriho’s flight are weak now.
However, it will be checked from time to time through a weather station before launch.
In addition, the sea near the launch pad and the sky where the Nuri will pass are all under control in preparation for an unexpected situation.

After standing up yesterday, Nuriho completed the connection to the umbilical tower smoothly.
Now, what steps are left?
◀ Reporter ▶
Yes, the exact launch time will be announced around 2:00 PM today.
The scheduled launch time is 6:24 pm, but a little later, at 1:30, the launch preparation committee holds a meeting and finalizes the final launch time.
In order to put the main satellite on the target orbit, it seems that it will be confirmed as it is if there are no other variables because it is necessary to shoot the Nuri within 30 minutes around 6:24 pm.
Four hours before launch, fuel and oxidizer are charged after cooling the oxidant tank, and the launch automatic operation system starts 10 minutes before launch.
It takes about 19 minutes to send 8 satellites into space from launch.
The government plans to announce whether the launch was successful at around 7:50 pm, an hour and a half after the launch.
