In 1975 in a letter to parliament by renowned physicist Karl Pagan was submitted to be read by the Science Committee. The letter contained provisions and a request for special council hearing on "matters of great scientific endeavor and economic urgency" as stated in the letter. A week later the Science Committe held a special counsel for Pagan and his group of fellow scientists; famed astronomer and physicist Ledrick Blastauff and theoretical physicist Marlene Starr. Together they presented to the committee "The Final Frontier Program", a 10-page 20,500-word synthesis on the importance of the formation of a space agency, one that tackled the importance of space science in the modernization of the country, as well as its economy. | |||

After a week of the committee synthesizing the final draft, The Final Frontier Bill #10199 was made and deliberations in parliament were started. The proposal was brought up to the Kaminoa Dieta during a special session, the hearing attended by Pagan, Blastauff, and Starr as key proponents of the bill. The majority of the opposition's arguments were on the feasibility of such a large endeavor, taking on the prospect of its funding and organizational complexity, with the structure of command having to rely much on a heavily scientifically inclined body. | |||

Strategic Plan
CSA is headed by a primary vision stated under the "One Goal" policy, suited for the FY2023. The One Goal was drafted as a bill submitted under the Science Committee with MP's; Derrick Lancaster, Hama Yamada, Talia Nyong'o, Sarah Hinterlunde, Oscar Wallis Just, and Eris Salvador as proponents.
The four tenets of the One Goal were;
- The expansion of knowledge for the scientific community with the ultimate beneficiary being the human race.
- The betterment of economic progress, furthering growth through technological innovation and quelling economic disruptions.
- The researching of sustainable means for economic and human existential growth through innovative technological ideas.
