Upcoming Spaceflights
Nuri | NeonSat-7 to 11
Korea Aerospace Research Institute | South KoreaNaro Space Center, South Korea
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
NeonSat-7 to 11 are part of the South Korean government's Earth observation micro-satellite constellation NeonSat (New-space Earth Observation Satellite). The NeonSat constellation is the first satellite system developed by the government using a mass-production approach for precise monitoring of the Korean Peninsula.
Sun-Synchronous OrbitNuri | CAS500-5
Korea Aerospace Research Institute | South KoreaNaro Space Center, South Korea
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
The South Korean CAS500-5 (Compact Advanced Satellite 500 5) is a small Earth observation satellite. It will be equipped with a C-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) payload (providing a 120 km image swath and 10 m resolution) to support missions including water resource monitoring and river management for the South Korean Government Ministry of Environment.
Sun-Synchronous OrbitNuri | NeonSat-2 to 6
Korea Aerospace Research Institute | South KoreaNaro Space Center, South Korea
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:
NeonSat-2 to 6 are part of the South Korean government's Earth observation micro-satellite constellation NeonSat (New-space Earth Observation Satellite). The NeonSat constellation is the first satellite system developed by the government using a mass-production approach for precise monitoring of the Korean Peninsula. 10 ride-sharing small satellites from various Korean institutes and organizations will also fly on this launch: * SLEDGE * GBSAT * PERSAT02 * UEL-Y-Sys * SD-1 SAT * E3_TESTER-KARI-2 * DaejonSat-1 * BEE-1012 * JACK-007 * CPSat
