DPRK Has Capacity to Put Spacecraft into Orbit: Russian
Pyongyang, December 13 (KCNA) -- Igor Lysov, a famous Russian expert in space development, in an interview with Interfax on Dec. 12 said that the DPRK has become a country with the capacity of putting spacecraft into the earth's orbit.

After the DPRK launched the satellite, the U.S. military confirmed that a new object appeared in the earth's orbit, he noted.

The DPRK put effective load weighing hundreds of kilograms into orbit, he said, stressing this means that the DPRK has reached the level of carrying nuclear warhead to any point on the earth.
