Korea space agency says Nuriho fifth launch successful, sixth launch in second half 2027

South Korea’s homegrown Nuriho (KSLV-II) rocket has succeeded in its fifth launch, carrying a record 15 satellites and separating all of them, the Korea Aerospace Administration said. The mission deployed 5 NeonSat satellites and 10 CubeSats into about a 575 km orbit, using a new low-shock separation device. The agency plans to launch 5 more NeonSats on Nuriho’s sixth flight in 2027 to build a 10-satellite constellation.
