SEOUL, South Korea >> The satellite North Korea failed to put into orbit wasn’t advanced enough to conduct military reconnaissance from space as it claimed, South Korea’s military said Wednesday after retrieving and studying the wreckage.
South Korea has ended a 36-day salvage operation after the North failed to launch a spy satellite in orbit. The satellite plunged into the sea, with the South Korean government analyzing the wreckage.
The South Korean military said it had retrieved the wreckage after a botched launch in May and found it had no meaningful military use as a spy satellite.
