The Korea AeroSpace Administration said on the 19th that it held a meeting at the agency headquarters, chaired by Vice Administrator Noh Kyung-won, with representatives of private corporations hoping to use the Naro Space Center.
At the meeting, representatives from three domestic launch vehicle development corporations, including the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI), Una Stella, INNOSPACE, and Perigee Aerospace, attended and shared opinions on the "guidebook for private corporations to use the Naro Space Center."
The guidebook is a standard procedure for private corporations to use the Naro Space Center's facilities, equipment, and services, and includes pre-consultation and application, review, approval, and post-launch follow-up measures. Before a private launch site is established in 2027, private corporations can use the berthing facilities in the Naro Space Center and idle land for the private launch site construction as launch sites. After additional feedback is collected, the guidebook will be released to the public in Oct.
Noh Kyung-won, Vice Administrator of the Korea AeroSpace Administration, said, "Since early this year, we have been promoting launch site support to respond to the launch demand of private corporations before the establishment of a private launch site," and added, "We will continue to do our best for the systematic growth of the private space industry."
