MSM: North Korea satellite 'tumbling in space'
It's official now.

North Korea satellite 'tumbling in space'

North Korea appears to be struggling to control a satellite it put into orbit last week, a space expert has said.

The Unha-3 satellite was launched on board a long-range rocket on 12 December, in defiance of sanctions and international warnings.

Pyongyang says the device, the size of a washing machine, is working and is beaming revolutionary songs to Earth.

But US astronomer Jonathan McDowell says it may be tumbling, and does not yet appear to be transmitting.

"Those two things are most consistent with the satellite being entirely inactive at this point," he told the New York Times.

What makes you think they wanted to put a 'working' satellite into space?
For a working satellite to function, time & effort would have had to have been expended in developing it, which, if the North Koreans just wanted to test the viability of the staging process....would mean,they didn't do that, and it would have been irrelevant for them to put a 'working' satellite into orbit.
Its probably just a weighted cylinder.
There is also the major necessity on the part of the Kim Jong Un group within the DPRK government to consolidate Jong Un's political stability.
That would have taken pre-eminence over any technical feats of grandeur related to the launch.
