$1,000 to Low Earth Orbit: South Korea’s reusable rocket plan targets SpaceX’s dominance
KASA announced plans for a $1,000 ride to LEO on a reusable rocket and for greater international collaboration in space.
Other projects announced in the event include developing a robotic spacecraft that would observe the sun from the Earth-sun L4 Lagrange point by 2035; orbital transfer vehicles and reentry capsules; and very-high-resolution imaging satellites with a resolution of up to 10 centimeters. Yoon said a pilot study on orbital transfer vehicles and reentry capsules will begin next year, with the goal of making them operational by the 2030s. On top of this, the KASA chief said he would visit NASA headquarters this month to discuss strategic partnership and would explore collaboration opportunities with a range of established and emerging spacefaring nations such as Japan, France, Greece, Germany, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
