Nara Space Targets H2 IPO with NASA Crewed Lunar Mission Satellite

The microsatellite 'K-RadCube', in whose development Nara Space Technology participated, has been officially confirmed through an announcement from the U.S. White House to be finally onboard NASA's manned lunar exploration mission, 'Artemis II'. This is part of a manned lunar exploration project resuming after more than 50 years since Apollo 17 in 1972, and K-RadCube will perform the important mission of measuring near-Earth space radiation. Under the supervision of the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI), Nara Space was responsible for the overall mission system integrated support, from the production of K-RadCube's satellite body to space environment testing, launch preparation, and post-launch operations, successfully demonstrating its high-level technical capabilities. In particular, it successfully passed all stringent certification procedures, including NASA's strict battery safety standards (JSC 20793) and thermal runaway tests, clearly demonstrating its attainment of global-level technological reliability. After separating from Artemis II in a specific orbit, this satellite is expected to perform independent observation missions. Nara Space's participation in this NASA project is regarded as a symbolic achievement that solidifies its global collaboration capabilities and technology by contributing to world-class space missions. The company recently showcased micro-satellite-based surveillance and reconnaissance solutions at 'Seoul ADEX 2025', the largest domestic defense industry exhibition, demonstrating its potential for expansion in the defense industry sector and attracting market attention with its optical constellation satellite 'Observer' and super-resolution technology. Based on a differentiated portfolio, including participation in projects linked to the Artemis II mission and expansion of defense technology, Nara Space is currently preparing for KOSDAQ listing through a special technology exception. The official announcement from the White House will serve as a decisive opportunity to introduce Nara Space's unique technological capabilities and future growth potential to the world, and it is expected to further solidify its position in both domestic and international space industry markets.
