boilerplate of some sort goes here --Mal-3 19:45, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

International law

  • The Outer Space Treaty of 1967 (revised 1979), the pre-wave basis for space operations.
  • The Kandor Treaty, the agreement between Earth and the Fen that provides the basis of Fenspace.

International organizations

The Space Powers

The Russian Federal Space Agency's Soyuz TMA-01M spacecraft is rolled out by train to the launch pad at the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan, Tuesday, Oct. 5, 2010.

The Space Powers are the nations which had independent space launch capability before handwavium. They are also generally considered to be some of the largest and most powerful nations on the planet.

The "Big Three" nations

These three agencies had not only space launch capability, but could launch humans into orbit pre-wave.

Independent launch capability

The rest of the herd

Handwavium research

more boilerplate goes here --Mal-3 19:45, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

  • The Transrationality Science Assessment Bureau (TSAB), the American agency responsible for handwavium studies. TSAB has taken over most of America's space operations from NASA.
  • The Extraordinary Events Agency, the EU/UK(needs clarifying) counterpart to TSAB.
  • (something Chinese ought to go here @ some point -Mal)
  • (ditto Japan, India & Russia - Mal) (JAXA SPACY for Japan, maybe? –Rob)
