The Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT, Minister: Lee Jong-Ho) set June 15, 2022 as the second launch date for KSLV-II, also known as Nuri, with reserved launch dates between June 16 and 23. The launch date was designated by the Launch Management Committee, a decision-making body for Nuri launch, after a comprehensive review on technical preparedness and various launch conditions such as weather conditions, space environment, and possibilities of collisions between space objects.
A performance verification satellite will be loaded this time onto the space vehicle and a comprehensive drill was conducted on May 19 against possible contingencies and to ensure public safety on the launch date.
First Vice Minister Oh Taeseog of Science and ICT said that "Korean researchers and professionals from the industry have made full-fledged efforts to identify and make technical improvement since the first launch of Nuri. Now that I visit the Naro Space Center, looking around the launch site and reported of the performance verification satellite inspection results, I can feel their hard work more than ever."
"As we are loading the performance verification satellite onto Nuri this time, which is a first trial to lift off our own satellite independently, the government will also provide an unwavering support to the end," added he.
