North Korea has started all the early preparations for a rocket launch today. The satellite image pictures show that it is all set for firing the rocket into the orbit.
While North Korea has been saying that it is purely a satellite launch, to put a communications satellite into orbit, Japan and US have been alleging that it is a ballistic missile testing, which is unacceptable.
US, Japan and South Korea have warned North Korea of stern action if it goes ahead with its scheduled launch. The world is waiting to see what unfolds in coming days.
