Play-with-Korea

The Korea Space Launch Vehicle-1 (KSLV-1) is placed on the launch pad at the Naro Space Center in Goheung, South Jeolla Province, Tuesday. The KSLV-1’s maiden flight in August last year ended in disappointment when the rocket failed to deliver its payload satellite into the orbit. Engineers at KARI, the country’s space agency, have made technical adjustments to the upper part of the rocket, which holds and releases the satellite, to reduce the possibility of another malfunction. / Korea Times
