South Korea's first domestically developed space rocket, Nuri, has arrived at the launch pad of the Naro Space Center in Goheung, South Jeolla Province, ahead of its fourth launch.

According to the Korea AeroSpace Administration and the Korea Aerospace Research Institute(KARI), Nuri departed the assembly building at 9 a.m. Tuesday and reached the launch pad by 10:42 a.m.

During the morning hours, the rocket was scheduled to be loaded onto a transporter erector, placed in an upright position and fixed to the pad.

In the afternoon, authorities plan to connect umbilicals for power, fuel and oxidizer, and conduct inspections.

The state space agency will convene its launch management committee on Wednesday to decide whether to proceed with fuel and oxidizer charging and to finalize the launch timing based on technical readiness, the launch window and weather conditions.

The launch window is currently set between 12:54 a.m. and 1:14 a.m. Thursday.

Meanwhile, the Coast Guard will ban vessels from operating near the Naro Space Center and waters in the direction of Nuri's flight from two hours before the window until ten minutes after the launch.
