International Space Agency [OPEN] (MT, PMT)

[Hyfling]

International Space Agency

Our official website: www.isa.int

Who We Are

Welcome to the International Space Agency! Hyfling is looking to establish an international space program, an alliance comprising of governments, organisations and private investors dedicated to the furtherment of human knowledge and scientific advancement. A combined Space Agency will allow member nations access to greater amounts of capital, dedicated manufacturing facilities and research centers.

What We Do

The purpose of the International Space Agency is to further open up the prospect of space development and research to all nations of any size and wealth regardless of whether or not that nation has it's own space agency, a combined organisation with a focussed goal best suits this purpose. ISA was formed to produce, operate and maintain space launches and research for use by the public and private sectors, it handles all aspects of technology related to space, from planning, researching, manufacturing, maintenance and financing to launches and operations.

The ISA operates as a business, different country's space agencies will be the shareholders. Each space agency owns an equal part of the ISA, when a new nation joins, the shareholding is further dilluted. For example, three space agencies would own 33.3%, a new nation joins and all four agencies now own 25% of the ISA, and so on.

We Need Your Help

HASD's facilities and capabilities can currently supply the requirement of ISA for now, but as it (hopefully) grows larger, newer larger facilities will be required: manufacturing, offices, research centers, launch sites and tracking stations imperative to the operation of our joint projects, launches and operations will need to be contributed by other member national space programs for this organisation to be a success.

Memberships

Anyone can be a member in the ISA, from governments, national space agencies and even private space companies, all are welcome. There are several different types of membership for each organisation:

Full Membership: a country that has it's own space program, facilities, launch sites and all the required infrastructure to be able to operate independently from the ISA. Full Members will provide their own infrastructure for use by the ISA Only full and special members may own a stake in the International Space Agency, as well as draw revenue from it.
Half Membership: a country which may or may not have a space program, but lacks the necessary infrastructure or funds required to be able to operate launches by themselves. Countries in this category can still take part in launches and contribute capital costs required by the ISA. But they are not considered stakeholders of the ISA.
Special Membership: reserved for special cases, the space agency may be a private enterprise and operate independently to the national government's whims, some countries may have operate two national space agencies. Special members can still own a percentage of the International Space Agency.
Sponsorships: non member nations or other private firms and individuals that wish to contribute money or products to the International Space Agency, but do not wish to provide the infrastructure required for operations.

Rules

-Regular forum rules apply, no spamming, trolling, etc
-The ISA is supposed to be a MT thing, early PMT at most. So no Deathstars or warp drives, K?
-Nations that become inactive for whatever reason will have their membership revoked.
-No wars, but we can develop weapons or focus on military purposes (spy satellites, ICBM development, etc).
-Please try and keep things reasonable, no "I donate 200 trillion dollarz" please.
-You don't need me to sign off on everything you're doing, as long as it's within the rules, research launch and create whatever you want!
-Other than that, have fun!

Annual budget

$20,802,300,000

The annual budget is calculated using only the nations that supplied the annual funding in NationStates Dollars (or NSD for short) For the purpose of simplicity, NSD is usually considered to be at parity with the US Dollar (or USD) Nations that provided their annual funding in their own currency (without supplying an exchange rate) are not included in the count. The actual number may be much higher.

Anyone who didn't provide their currency in NSD or USD and want to be counted on the budget, please telegram me either the exchange rate, or the worth in NSD. Thanks!

[Nordic States and Territories]

National Application Form

Nation Name (full):United Kingdoms of Nordic States and Territories

Facilities the ISA can use: The weather in the UKNS is not ideal for launch sites, nor are we industrially powerfull. However, we bring our scientists, engineers, cosmonauts, and facilities to the table. We have a mission control based in Malmo that's relatively new, and manned by the best the UKNS has to offer. Because our nation stretches from Greenland to Karelia, we have a broad range of tracking stations to moniter ISA spacecraft. We have satellites covering the area, as well as somewhat limitedly into our allies airspace.
(Sorry about not providing exact amounts, I'm not well versed in the subject and so I don't think I could come up with a realistic number. Basically we are +manpower and technology. However, we are -production, launchpoints, and facilities. If you need me to come ba k and edit this I can.)
Money pledged to the ISA (annually): 1.2 billion Kr

Space Agency (if applicable):NNASRC, the Nordic National Aeronautics and Space Research Committee
Type (public, private, other): National space agency, but we'll outsource to private engineers and scientists
Space Agency Annual Budget (NSD): 4.1 billion Kr (roughly 2.6 billion USD)
Location of Mission Control:Malmo

Why do you want to join the ISA:The UKNS is having a bit of a space race with our friends/rivals/neighbours the Russo-Slavs. We know they're establishing a line of anti-air gun installations along our border, and intelligence suggests they're trying to establish an "orbital bombardment" program. Though we don't believe it will come to anything, we still want to keep them from establishing air and orbital superiority. Therefore we want to use the resources of the ISA to research technology for our next generation military armaments. We also want to establish a satellite surveillance system. We hope to glean the technology to do these things through out partnership with the ISA, though our public reasons are simply to research and take part in scientific advancement.


In case you can't tell, I'm applying for full membership. Also, what approximate time is this set in?

National Application Form

Nation Name (full):United Kingdoms of Nordic States and Territories

Facilities the ISA can use: The weather in the UKNS is not ideal for launch sites, nor are we industrially powerfull. However, we bring our scientists, engineers, cosmonauts, and facilities to the table. We have a mission control based in Malmo that's relatively new, and manned by the best the UKNS has to offer. Because our nation stretches from Greenland to Karelia, we have a broad range of tracking stations to moniter ISA spacecraft. We have satellites covering the area, as well as somewhat limitedly into our allies airspace.
(Sorry about not providing exact amounts, I'm not well versed in the subject and so I don't think I could come up with a realistic number. Basically we are +manpower and technology. However, we are -production, launchpoints, and facilities. If you need me to come ba k and edit this I can.)
Money pledged to the ISA (annually): 1.2 billion Kr

Space Agency (if applicable):NNASRC, the Nordic National Aeronautics and Space Research Committee
Type (public, private, other): National space agency, but we'll outsource to private engineers and scientists
Space Agency Annual Budget (NSD): 4.1 billion Kr (roughly 2.6 billion USD)
Location of Mission Control:Malmo

Why do you want to join the ISA:The UKNS is having a bit of a space race with our friends/rivals/neighbours the Russo-Slavs. We know they're establishing a line of anti-air gun installations along our border, and intelligence suggests they're trying to establish an "orbital bombardment" program. Though we don't believe it will come to anything, we still want to keep them from establishing air and orbital superiority. Therefore we want to use the resources of the ISA to research technology for our next generation military armaments. We also want to establish a satellite surveillance system. We hope to glean the technology to do these things through out partnership with the ISA, though our public reasons are simply to research and take part in scientific advancement.

In case you can't tell, I'm applying for full membership. Also, what approximate time is this set in?

Congratulations to the Nordic States and Territories! After much deliberation, your application to join us at the ISA has been APPROVED. Your nation is now listed as a Full Member of the International Space Agency, and we will now be updating your national information in the table. Due to the amount of applications, this may take a while to complete. Also, in response to your question regarding the time period this is set in, it is MT to very early PmT, so ranging from now, give or take 15-20 years.

I would like to make a suggestion for an ISA mission. The American people are requesting that we send a few rovers to explore the seas of Enceladus. With your permission we would like to present this idea to the board so that whenever possible it will be discussed and hopefully launched.

Hyfling's space agency supports this idea. The Director of Finance will be contacted and will allocate some funding for this project, any estimates on how much money this would cost? Despite it's support for the project, the HASD also believes we should focus our attentions on building a single-stage to orbit vessel, which would remove the necessity of expensive and time wasting vehicle assembly and the dangerous re-use of boosters and fuel tanks, not to mention provide an easier platform to transport cargo and personnel to space.

OOC: you don't really need my permission to do anything here, once you're in the ISA feel free to RP as you please

[Semolia]

I just want to say that every project that our Federation proposes will giving money. So our space agencies would like to call all members of ISA on congres in our main city Belgrade. If you want to do it I will send a official letter. Do you agree with me ? Also NSA ans FSA would publish new project on that congress.

[Zorga]

We also need a sig to put on our nations, to recognize that we are part of the organization.
