Scientists on Friday finished injecting liquid propellant into the Naro space rocket‚ a process required to take the rocket off the launch pad.
Detailed inspections are expected to be held throughout the weekend.
The launch of the Naro Space rocket was halted 17 minutes before its scheduled launch Thursday due to a malfunction in the Thurst Vector Control in the second stage of the rocket.
It's the latest setback in a 10-year journey by the nation.
The Naro space program began in 2002‚ when there was growing need for South Korea to deliver satellites into space on its own.
Which begs the question‚ why is Korea so intent on launching the rocket[Interview : ] "There are many leading economies around the world that have been in this business for many years‚ including Korea's neighbors‚ like China and Japan. So when you take this into account‚ Korea is playing catch-up."
So what economic effects would a successful space rocket launch have[Interview : ] "In the short term‚ the launch could have a positive impact on the production on different related parts and industries. The long-term benifits could include the public relations effect‚ letting the world know that Korea has achieved a level of technology. That could greatly help Korea's private sector companies with their marketing and business overseas."
This next attempt to launch the Naro will be the third. Previous attempts in 2009 and 2010 failed.
But this hardly represents the end.
A separate space program to develop a 10-ton thrust engine by 2016 is already in progress.
That engine will be the first step toward developing a 300-ton thrust engine that can carry a 1-and-a-half ton satellite into space by 2021.
The country has so far sent about 10 satellites into space‚ but all were launched from foreign soil‚ using foreign rockets.
Only 12 nations have successful launched a rocket into space from their own soil.
Korea will continue trying to become the 13th.
