The Deseret Space Corporation (Deseretan: ππ―π π¨ππ―π» ππΉπ©π ππ«ππΉπ²ππ©ππ²π), commonly called DesSpace (ππ―πππΉπ©π ), is a government managed space agency of Deseret intended to engage in space flight and pursue space and aeronautics related research for both civilian and military purposes. Having had self launch capability since the mid-2000's, the agency DesSpace announced plans in June, 2015 to achieve human spaceflight capability by 2022.
History
The National Space Agency was established on June 12, 1984 with the signing of the National Space Capabilities Act by Chief Executive Robert Esrom. Originally intended to be a secondary agency focused on military activities in space, the increased tension between XXXX and Deseret in the early 1990's prompted a shift toward self-sufficient spaceflight. Renamed DesSpace, it began using the acquired experience in the XXXX to develop into a fully capable space agency.
In 1998, Deseret withdrew from the XXXX to pursue the Amulon Plan and establish full launch capability for Deseret. On August 12, 2004, DesSpace successfully launched its first domestically developed rocket system, the Progress I, accomplishing the first phase o goals outlined in the plan. On June 27, 2015, Chief Executive Thomas Aiken announced Deseret's intention to put a man into space by 2022.
Launch Vehicles
Since 1998 Deseret has developed domestic rocket technologies, beginning with the Progress program and leading eventually to the modern Discovery program.
