韩国航空宇宙厅宣布，计划在2035年前建立低地球轨道卫星通信网络，并将韩国首次登月计划提前至2030年。
韩国航空宇宙厅于7月3日在晋州举行的高级产业发展简报会上公布了这一战略。该计划于同日经由李在明总统主持的国家航天委员会批准通过。该网络将需要128至512颗卫星，预计每五年耗资4万亿至13.2万亿韩元。政府将成立一家由私营企业控股的特殊目的公司，旨在实现卫星数据的商业化，预计到2034年该项目销售额将超过17亿美元。此外，探月计划也将加速推进：计划于2029年发射月球通信轨道飞行器，2030年搭载“世界”号运载火箭发射小型着陆器，并于2031年进行地月探测。航空宇宙厅厅长吴泰锡表示，低地球轨道网络是保障国家安全和通信主权的关键基础设施。
