North Korea Says Latest Launches Tested 1st Spy Satellite

North Korea says it fired a test satellite in an important final-stage test for the development of its first spy satellite. That's a key military capability coveted by its leader Kim Jong Un. The North’s state media said Monday the test was done to assess the satellite's photography and data transmission systems. It also released black-and-white photos showing Seoul and another South Korean city as seen from space in an apparent attempt to show the North is pushing to monitor its rival with its advancing technologies.
