South Korea's K-RadCube radiation satellite will hitch a ride on NASA's Artemis 2 moon mission

Korea's K-RadCube radiation-measuring cubesat will fly on NASA's Artemis 2 moon mission in 2026.

South Korea's K-RadCube satellite has arrived at NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida ahead of its launch toward the moon next year.

The Korea AeroSpace Administration (KASA) announced the arrival of the K-RadCube in Florida on Aug. 13 via the social media platform X. The milestone comes as preparations for NASA's Artemis 2 mission build. The 10-day mission will send four astronauts around the moon aboard the Orion spacecraft, with launch currently scheduled for no earlier than February 2026, and no later than April 2026.
