South Korea puts second military spy satellite successfully into orbit
Seoul and Pyongyang are in a race to put more reconnaissance satellites into orbit amid rising tensions on the peninsula.
South Korea has successfully launched its second military reconnaissance satellite, days after North Korea reiterated its intention to launch multiple spy satellites this year.
The satellite entered orbit after its launch on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from the John F Kennedy Space Center in Florida in the United States on Sunday, South Korea’s National Ministry of Defense said.
Seoul’s military said in a statement that its “independent intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities have been further strengthened” by the successful launch.
“We will proceed with future satellite launches without a hitch,” it added.
The Falcon 9 rocket was launched at 23:17 GMT and the satellite successfully separated from the launch vehicle 45 minutes later and entered its targeted orbit, according to the statement.
It made successful communications with a ground station about two hours and 40 minutes after the launch, the ministry added.
