Korea's science ministry aims to launch the next Nuri space rocket in 2025, aiming to send a next-generation medium-size satellite into space. In the third launch of the domestically developed rocket, also known as Korean Space Launch Vehicle II (KSLV II), it successfully placed NEXTSAT-2, a small satellite weighing 179.9 kilograms, in geosynchronous orbit on May 25.
과학기술정보통신부는 차세대 중형위성 우주 발사를 위해 2025년 4차 누리호 발사를 목표로 하고 있다. 국내 독자 기술로 개발된 로켓으로 알려진 한국형 우주발사체 누리호(KSLV-II)의 3차 발사에서는 179.9kg의 소형 위성 2호(NEXTSAT-2)를 25일 목표 궤도에 성공적으로 안착시켰다.


The Ministry of Science and ICT said Monday that the fourth Nuri launch will put a much larger 500-kilogram satellite in orbit.
월요일 과기정통부가 발표한 바에 따르면 누리호 4차 발사에서는 훨씬 더 큰 500kg급 위성을 궤도에 올릴 것이라고 밝혔다.


Korea has tried to put next-generation medium-sized satellites in orbit twice ― the first one was launched in March 2021 by Russia's Soyuz launch vehicle from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, and the second one was scheduled to be launched in September 2022, also on a Russian launch vehicle, but was canceled due to the Russia-Ukraine war.
한국은 차세대 중형위성을 궤도에 도달시키기 위해 두 번의 시도를 했다. 첫 번째는 2021년 3월 카자흐스탄의 바이코누르 우주센터에서 러시아의 소유스 로켓을 이용해 발사했고, 두 번째는 2022년 9월 러시아 우주 로켓을 통해 발사 예정이었지만, 러시아-우크라이나 전쟁으로 취소되었다.


The medium-sized satellite will be developed by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), while the previous two were co-developed by the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) and KAI, a private company.
중형위성은 한국항공우주산업(KAI)에서 개발될 예정이다. 반면, 이전 두 개의 위성은 한국항공우주연구원(KARI)과 민간 기업인 KAI가 공동 개발했다.


The planned medium-size satellite will be used to conduct cell culture experiments in space, measuring space plasma and magnetic fields and demonstrating a wide-field atmospheric light observation camera for space.
계획 중인 중형위성은 우주에서 세포 배양 실험을 수행하고, 우주 플라즈마와 자기장을 측정하며, 넓은 시야의 우주용 대기광 관측 카메라를 시연하는 데 사용된다.


"As the only company in Korea that has performed the entire process, we are very proud of the success of the May 25 launch," a KAI spokesperson said. "We will contribute to the successful fourth, fifth and sixth KSLV launches through detailed process management and strict quality control."
KAI 대변인은 "전 과정을 수행한 유일한 한국 기업으로서, 5월 25일 발사 성공에 대해 매우 자랑스럽게 생각한다"며 "세밀한 공정 관리와 엄격한 품질 통제를 통해 4차, 5차, 6차 누리호 발사의 성공에 기여할 것"이라고 말했다.


The fifth and sixth Nuri launches, scheduled for 2026 and 2027, will carry ultra-small satellites weighing less than 100 kilograms. They will carry high-resolution cameras capable of distinguishing objects one meter in size on the Earth's surface.
누리호 5차, 6차 발사는 2026년과 2027년에 예정되어 있으며, 100kg 이하 무게의 초소형 위성을 운반할 예정이다. 이들 위성은 지구 표면에서 1미터 크기의 물체를 분간할 수 있는 고해상도 카메라를 탑재하게 된다.
