SEOUL, Oct 27: South Korea called off the launch of a space rocket yesterday after a glitch in the Russian-built booster halted preparations five hours before the scheduled lift-off. It was South Korea’s third attempt to put a satellite into orbit and comes after North Korea succeeded in launching a rocket in April that it said was carrying a satellite, only to abort the mission early in its flight.
