  "summary": "The Nuri rocket successfully launched on its fifth attempt, deploying 14 of 15 satellites into their intended orbits on Wednesday. The rocket, which took off from the Naro Space Center in Goheung, Jeonnam-Gwangju Special Metropolitan City, completed its approximately 20-minute flight by around 12:45 p.m. The Nuri rocket's primary payload was a swarm of five NEONSAT microsatellites, followed by nine CubeSats. However, subsequent checks revealed that PERSAT02, a CubeSat developed by Quaternion, failed to separate from the rocket. The flight concluded around 12:45 p.m. after the third stage completed its autopilot sequence.",
