The Space Agency and the Korea Aerospace Research Institute plan to hold the fourth wrap-up party between 12:54 a.m. and 1:14 a.m. on the 27th.
Prior to this, the Nuri was transported from the Launch Vehicle Assembly Building at the Naro Space Center in Goheung County, South Jeolla Province, to the second launch pad at 9 a.m. on the 25th.
After the vehicle was launched, it was connected to an umbilical to supply power and propellant (fuel and oxidizer), and launch preparations such as an airtightness check were carried out.
The Nuri Launch Management Committee is scheduled to decide whether to load the propellant on the afternoon of the 26th. The final wrap-up party time will depend on the technical readiness, launch window, and other factors.
The decision will be made after comprehensively considering weather conditions and the possibility of a collision with a space object. Meanwhile, the fourth wrap-up party will be held in collaboration with Hanwha Aerospace, a systems integration company, which is responsible for the launch vehicle production.
The project is led by the entire process and is characterized by the fact that a medium-sized satellite (Next Generation Medium-sized Satellite No. 3) is on board. 12 CubeSats produced by domestic companies, universities, and research institutes were also wrapped up at the same time, and the satellites were utilized.
If the wrap-up party of Nuri is successful, the main payload satellite (next-generation satellite) will be launched into a sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of 600 km approximately 807 seconds (13 minutes 27 seconds) after liftoff.
The first medium-sized satellite, CubeSat No. 3, will be separated. After that, 12 CubeSats will be separated two at a time, approximately 20 seconds apart, for a total of six times. 1,284 seconds after liftoff, all satellites will be separated, and the flight will end.
That's the plan.
