[Nuri Rocket 4th Launch] 13 Days Until Nuri's First Night Launch... Why Was "1 a.m." Chosen?

The main payload for the fourth launch of the Nuri rocket, the 'Next-Generation Medium Satellite 3', and the 12 CubeSats serving as secondary payloads, were unveiled at a press briefing on the 14th. This launch, jointly conducted by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), the Korea Aerospace Research Institute, universities, companies, and research institutions, is considered a significant turning point as Korea's space development shifts from a government-led to a private sector-led initiative. Notably, this will be the first nighttime launch in the history of the Nuri rocket. Dawn Launch Chosen to Achieve Sun-Synchronous Orbit The fourth launch of the Nuri rocket is scheduled for around 1:00 a.m. (between 12:54 and 1:14 a.m.) on November 27. The launch time was set for the middle of the night because the main payload, the Next-Generation Medium Satellite 3, must be precisely inserted into a Sun-synchronous orbit (SSO). The launch angle, timing, and flight path of the Nuri rocket are all de

"AI Bubble, Pull Out Your Money Now"... Wall Street Prophet's Warning After Two Years [Tech Talk]

"Sometimes, we see bubbles. In such times, not participating in the market might be the way to win." This was a post by Michael Burry, founder of the U.S. hedge fund Scion Asset Management, on his X account on October 30 (local time). It was his first statement on social media in over two years. Burry, who amassed great wealth through short selling, is renowned for predicting the 2008 U.S. financial crisis. Now, he has resumed his activity by warning of an 'artificial intelligence (AI) bubble.' This has put both Wall Street and the big tech companies on high alert. Michael Burry Targets Leading AI Firms Palantir and Nvidia Burry has put his AI short-selling into action. On the 13th (local time), he announced via X that he had entered into put options contracts for 5 million shares of Palantir expiring in January 2027, and 1 million shares of Nvidia expiring in December of the same year.

"Successive Incidents Trigger Major Shake-up"... Telecom Industry on Edge Over '30% Executive Reduction'

"Successive Incidents Trigger Major Shake-up"... Telecom Industry on Edge Over '30% Executive Reduction'

The aftermath of a series of hacking incidents this year is spreading to year-end personnel changes in the telecommunications industry, putting both KT and LG Uplus on edge as the year draws to a close. After SK Telecom implemented a drastic measure of reducing its executive ranks by 30% the previous day, a sense of crisis is spreading throughout the industry, with many saying, "This is the real beginning of a major restructuring." KT, which was hit directly by the hacking incidents, is experiencing a subdued atmosphere. Security risks have persisted throughout the second half of the year, including unauthorized micro-payment incidents caused by illegal micro base stations (femtocells) and suspicions of concealing the hacking incidents. As a result, there has been ongoing speculation about possible personnel accountability. CEO Kim Youngsub took responsibility for the situation and decided not to seek another term, and the management accountability debate spread to the board of directo

CCU Industry Promotion Accelerates... Government Unveils First Certification System

CCU Industry Promotion Accelerates... Government Unveils First Certification System

The government has begun overhauling regulations to actively foster the carbon capture utilization (CCU) industry, which converts carbon dioxide into valuable resources. On November 14, the Ministry of Science and ICT held a CCU policy hearing and the CCU Initiative Forum at EL Tower in Seoul, where it unveiled, for the first time, draft systems for technology and product certification as well as for designating specialized companies. As the lack of clear standards has been cited as a reason for delayed market formation, this public disclosure is significant as it marks the first institutional foundation for the industrialization of CCU. CCU technology converts emitted carbon dioxide into industrial resources such as aviation fuel or methanol. Its strategic importance is growing amid tightening international regulations, including the carbon border adjustment mechanism and mandatory use of sustainable aviation fuel. Korea has designated CCU as a core sector for achieving its 2035 natio
