South Korea has launched its first homemade rocket, making strides in the country's movement in space science.
The Korean rocket, known as Nuri, left Goheung, about 500km (310 miles) south of Seoul.
President Moon Jae-in has said the car has completed the entire trip plan but failed to set its satellite imagery around the earth.
Such a launch is important in the planning of the thinker but may have military equipment.
South Korea is rushing with North Korea in arms development, with both countries testing their new weapons soon. The North delivered its satellite in the 2012 cycle.
Nuri cost South Korea nearly $ 1.62 billion to repair. The 200-ton rocket, with a height of 47.2 meters, has six fuel engines.
In his remarks, President Moon acknowledged that the launch did not meet their goals, but added: "It is not long before it will be able to launch it fully in a targeted way," Reuters news agency reported.
South Korea plans to conduct four more tests of the Nuri spacecraft by 2027 to stabilize itself, according to the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) which is overseeing the launch.
