Space Travel

[YellowApple]

Does your country have a space program and how advanced is it?

Yes, YellowApple, Inc. does have a space program, considering that approximately 75% of the YellowApplan population lives beyond Earth's lowest orbital boundary.

We'd consider it to be quite advanced when you consider the superluminal transit methods we've reverse-engineered from equine magic.

[The Merchant Republics]

PMT:
The Most Serene Confederation has a very significant space program, it forst reached prominence with the launch of our Flagship Satellite City: "Aethon" in 1999. Though a mere control hub at the time, by 2010 it had over 2,000 long-term residents and regular tourism reaching as high as 1,200 visitors per month.

In 2011, Aethon was connected to the Haphestus Spaceport, which will serve as our terminal point for the planned space elevator in Caesarina due to be completed in 2018.

Major ventures in exo-planetary mining have yielded great wealth and aerospace development, though currently nothing close to a permanent mining mission has been organized.

The Confederation eagerly desire to begin colonizing the moon, but previously and overlapping claims and treaties regarding the moon have made things difficult.

FT: Faster than lift spaceflight is and has been ubiquitous since the 22nd century, when the Exodus Fleet developed the technology to escape Earth's unfortunate demise.

Although hyperspace gates are more reliable and preferred between major worlds and colonies, traditional zero-mass acceleration engines provide the bulk of travel and trade between less developed worlds.

[Spambots]

Us spambots travel digitally to every corner of the universe, spreading our delicious spam to every computer imaginable.

[Cameroi]

nearly a quarter of our population at one time or another in their lives crew on cargo or passenger space vessels, or have completed some portion of their higher education aboard university research space ships.

at leas one semester on such a university research vessel is a degree requirement for any xeno- major, such as xenobotany or xenogeophysics, xenozoology, et al.

it was aboard the d.s.v. elthoniel, persuing a degree in xenogoephysics, that yours truly, themnax, ran into the situation that catapulted him into lowpersonship and intergalactic diplomacy.

[Naturesocialistic Aryaland]

Our space program blossoms and advances at high rate. So far our greatest leap was establishing Moon colony a year ago. As soon as we receive improved and more advanced technology, we will start building space stations and orbital colonies.

[The empire of dragons]

yes. we have colonies in half the arm of our galaxy

[Kalmarium]

We govern over 100,000,000 worlds actually! Making The Kalmar Imperium is the single-largest (known) faction in the galaxy (in our lore). We utilize Quantum-energy for our FTL drives, via opening portals in the Quantum gate, which allows us to get from one star to another from mere hours to almost instantly. This has been made the standard FTL drive of the Imperium, replacing the Warp drive due to greater efficiency, less chance of a fleet getting lost in the warp, or other instances.

Although we have been to the moon in 1967, it was not until 2027 that we really started re-booting the space program, and started a 2nd space race with China, the EU, and the US as to who could reach Mars first. In 2105 is when we began to start colonialization of planets.

Basically we dont need a space program.

[Europe and Asia]

Yes, we have several vessels engaged in long range space travel. We have several stations on the moon, and have terra formed most of Mars, and are creating stable open air environments on the planet. We are the only country to accomplish such feats. We are looking to unify the entirety of earth to make us capable of colonizing other solar systems. We are in the process of creating faster than light drives, using the property of Slipspace and Plasmic destabilization of normal space.

[Sobaeg]

You could say we are not all here! Refer to our fact book for clarification.

[Onora]

Of course Onora has space travel thou inter system travel is rare to come by.

[Shnercropolis]

We have a space program, but we're more interested in astrophysics than actually sending people and things into space.

[Inutoland]

Inutolander space program (MT)

Inutoland FT basically is a space program

[Potlimitomaha]

Does your country have a space program-Yes
And how advanced is it?- pretty adavanced
Potlimitomaha has already got a man in space. Potlimitomaha is expected to get a man on the moon within 5 years.

[Senkaku]

We have a space elevator and bases on the moon. We have asteroid mining. We have probes that have gone 10 light-years. I'd say Senkaku's space program is VERY advanced.

Spam is delicious.

[Benomia]

We do have a space program, however the only thing it has ever done is launch our national SDI into orbit.

[Holy Aleran Empire]

Since we are in a perpetual state of war with the Democratic Republic of Jihadist Naziism, our space program is quite advanced. We have a satelite similiar to the one in Gears of War in orbit right now, ready to strike. We also have several "Rods of God" satelites, whereby giant rods of tungsten are launched into the atmosphere at a target, striking the Earth with enough force to destroy small islands. Our Navy maintains a force of three frigates and seven destroyers in orbit, all armed with both nuclear and conventional warhead missiles for quick and effective missile delivery.

[Reustinia]

Reustinia has a large fleet of 978,547,432 ships (Mostly robotic) in orbit of Hylia (Our Home world) as well as well as completing a impenetrable shield around Hylia for protective purposes.
Our booming economy has allowed us to begin construction of a planet incubator so that when the sun does blow up we can just hitch on another system with 0 problems.
Reustinia altogether has 478 sparsely populated colonies.
Gov spending on the program is 25% due to high potential for space to open new markets.

[Venutia]

Venutia's space program was once one of it's main priorities, however in recent years it has taken a back seat, however the government is planning to pay more attention to space travel in the near future.

Our fleet of spacecraft currently only consists of 3 very old space shuttle's, but our very first SSTO space craft is expected to take it's test flight in 2 years, which if successful will revolutionize space travel for us; we are also in the planning stages of our first trip to mars and the space agency is also considering planning an eventual martian base.

Commercial space travel is also on the rise in Venutia, Venutiana space port was completed 7 months ago, which has the capacity of launching 29 space vehicles in a 24 hour period, currently it's only two occupants are GoOrbital and SpaceXpress, however another 3 companies have signed up for use of the spaceport next year. GoOribtal, Venutia's number one space travel provider also has plans to put a space resort in orbit within the next 5 years.

[Pacificius]

Due to a lack of funding, The Pacificius Aerospace Program's rocket fights are little more then sub-orbital mortar lobs. The experimental aircraft flights however are subsidized by The PNDF( Pacificius National Defense Force), and are usually more intricate.

[Aphrenaxios]

Space travel in Aphrenaxios is highly advanced, cheap and easy. Interstellar flights for trade and diplomacy are common, we are a part of a vast and advanced interstellar empire, and inroads are being made into inter-galactic travel.

[Lindenholt]

We don't have a real space program civil space travel happens every day! We have colonies on Mars and the Moon. Also we have the Lindian Space Force, that operates a space station

[Svalbar]

mt: travel to the nearest planet to cholgis and its two moons possible.
pmt: common solar-system controlled by the Cholgian United Federation of Nations, plasma engines perfected.
Ft: we have fast as light technology perfected and can utilize wormholes conroling the entire galaxy, using antimatter to drive our gigantic fleet

[Shalekia]

The Reformed Federation of Shalekia has been a space faring nation for 346 years. We have colonized 37 planetary systems, and have 7,000+ ships capable of faster than light speed. The capital is the planet of Shalek. It is what humans refer to as Gliese 581 d. We allow civilians to own their own spacecraft. We detected earth in 2143 when we detected signals from space.

[Cameroi]

many regularly scheduled freight and passenger transgalactic services fly our nation's flag. major universities have deep space research vessels. many private citizens have their own 'singleships' i.e. small space worthy craft with recycling life support, local gravity, and warp drives.
