INNOSPACE announced today that it has begun functional checks and satellite–launch vehicle interface tests for customer satellites and experimental payloads as part of the operational procedures for its first commercial launch mission SPACEWARD of the ‘HANBIT-Nano’.


This procedure verifies the electrical and mechanical connections between the payload adapter (PLA) and other integration hardware with the satellites and payloads. It is an essential pre-launch step to ensure stable mounting and integrated operation.

I recall that the previous TLV launch also experienced repeated delays.

[Nuri's 4th Launch] Nuri Succeeds in First Launch Led by Private Sector

The fourth launch of 'Nuri,' the Korea Space Launch Vehicle developed with South Korea's own technology, has succeeded. This launch, the first to be led by the private sector, is expected to be a star

The fourth launch of 'Nuri,' the Korea Space Launch Vehicle developed with South Korea's own technology, has succeeded. This launch, the first to be led by the private sector, is expected to be a starting point for the flourishing of the domestic space industry.

It also signifies that payloads and space technologies, painstakingly developed by dozens of domestic industry-academia-research institutes, can now be fully verified using a domestic launch vehicle. The success was achieved despite a 2.5-year launch hiatus. This is a green light for securing Nuri's reliability.

The Korea AeroSpace Administration (KASA) announced that the Next-Generation Medium Satellite 3 (CAS500-3), launched aboard the Korean launch vehicle Nuri at 1:13 AM on the 27th (KST), successfully reached its target orbit. Furthermore, two-way communication with the King Sejong Station ground station in Antarctica was successfully established around 1:55 AM. Communication with five of the twelve secondary/piggyback satellites launched alongside it has also been confirmed.

First, following the initial contact, CAS500-3 achieved an additional successful communication around 2:48 AM via the antenna at the KARI (Korea Aerospace Research Institute) ground station in Daejeon. To date, the satellite has conducted two-way communication twice with the KARI ground station and 12 times with overseas ground stations (King Sejong Station in Antarctica, and Svalbard in Norway).

During the communication sessions today, the functionality of the CAS500-3 main body components was confirmed. Detailed status information will be downloaded, and precision checks will be performed through additional communications with the Daejeon KARI ground station and others.

Following a two-month period of initial operation, the satellite will undergo payload checks and mission preparation. It will then enter full-scale space science mission activities for one year, orbiting the Earth approximately 15 times a day in a Sun-Synchronous Orbit .

CAS500-3 is equipped with the following payloads to perform space science and technology verification missions:

BioCabinet: Verification of 3D differentiation and culture of stem cells based on bio 3D printing.

IAMMAP : Space plasma-magnetic field measurement instrument.

ROKITS : Space-based wide-field airglow observation instrument.

In addition, the development organizations responsible for the 12 secondary/piggyback satellites have initiated initial ground station communication and performance checks.

Among the 12 secondary satellites, five satellites—manufactured by the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Cosmoworks, Inha University, and KAIST—have also completed communication with their respective ground stations.
