“The Nuri didn't perfectly attain its goal, but it has done a very good job in its first launch. If we check things and make up for what we lacked today, we will surely achieve a perfect success in our second launch in May next year. Satellites are increasingly used not only for broadcasting, communication and GPS, but also for environmental and disaster responses. We already manufacture and operate practical satellites on our own, but we have had to use launch vehicles from other countries. Now we can put our satellites into space with our own launch vehicles. Now, a new era of space exploration has opened. Over the past decade, the global space industry has more than doubled, and space development itself has become an industry. It is already a reality that ordinary people are sightseeing in space. A country that leads in space development will lead the future. The government will invest in the long-term so that Korea can become a space powerhouse.”
