South Korea has recovered some of the Chollima-1 wreckage - including, for the first time, parts of a satellite. United Nations resolutions - passed with Russia's support - also ban any scientific and technical cooperation with North Korea in nuclear science and technology, aerospace and aeronautical engineering and technology, or advanced manufacturing production techniques and methods.At the time of the 2016 space launch, North Korea had yet to fire an intercontinental ballistic missile .
