South Korea Satellite

A failed satellite launch, floating hundreds of trash-filled balloons into the South, and firing a volley of 10 short-range ballistic missiles: North Korea has had a busy week.

South Korean, Chinese and Japanese leaders were set to meet in Seoul Monday for their first trilateral summit in nearly five years, after the nuclear-armed North announced plans to put another satellite into orbit.

South Korea's second domestically made spy satellite was successfully put into orbit, Seoul's defence ministry said Monday, after it was launched from an American space centre on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

The office operating North Korea's newly launched spy satellite will run as a military intelligence organisation, state media said Sunday.

A SpaceX rocket on Friday launched South Korea's first military spy satellite, intensifying a space race on the peninsula after Pyongyang launched its own first military eye in the sky last week.

North Korea said Thursday it was suspending a five-year-old accord reached with South Korea to reduce military tensions -- the latest retaliatory fallout over Pyongyang's spy satellite launch.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has reviewed images taken by his country's new spy satellite of "major target regions" in South Korea, including its capital and cities hosting US military bases, state media said Saturday.

North Korea said Thursday it would deploy new weapons and stronger armed forces to the border with the South, as Seoul's spy agency said Pyongyang had received Russian help to successfully put a military spy satellite into orbit.

North Korea said it successfully placed its first spy satellite in orbit on Tuesday and vowed to launch more in the near future, defying international condemnation from the United States and its allies.

North Korea claimed Wednesday to have successfully put its first military surveillance satellite into orbit, with the South also preparing to send up its first spy satellite later this month.

North Korea has fired what it claims is a military spy satellite southwards, Seoul's military said Tuesday, hours after Japan confirmed that Pyongyang had warned it of an imminent launch.

North Korea appears to be preparing for its third attempt this year at launching a reconnaissance satellite, a move that may prove as controversial as the nuclear-armed country's weapons tests.

South Korea's military warned North Korea on Monday to immediately stop preparations for a spy satellite launch, vowing to take "necessary measures" if it goes ahead.

South Korea's military said on Wednesday it had retrieved the wreckage of a North Korean spy satellite that plunged into the sea in May after a botched launch and found it had no meaningful military use as a reconnaissance satellite.
