Naro Space Center was South Korea's primary launch facility, as administered by Korea Aerospace Research Institute for the civilian space program. Opened in 1986, the ROK space program saw several early satellite failures, before it was augmented by the Dinyan-Yoyodyne Conglomerate for production, launch and support of DY series spacecraft.
