South Korea is on track for its first lunar mission, with its first launch of a lunar orbiter slated for the second half of 2022, the country's space research institute said on Sunday, after the country's lunar project suffered multiple delays. South Korea, a relative latecomer to the global space race, has been working on a lunar orbiter programme since 2016, as per report.
