한국군 최초 전용 통신위성 오늘 발사
South Korea's first military communications satellite was launched into space this morning.
With this, the country became the 10th country in the world to put a military communications satellite into orbit.
The Anasis-II satellite lifted off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida... on a Falcon-nine rocket made by U.S.-based commercial space firm SpaceX.
The satellite will send data two times faster than before and maintain quality even if it's subject to jamming attacks from enemy forces.
