History
- The Imperial Space Administration (ISA) was founded in 1978 to use telescopes to observe the cosmos. It expanded to 8 different telescope arrays and the first director was appointed by the Original Emperor, Shaz Bot, on the 29th of August, 1978. The ISA played a pivotal role in the exploration of space during the 1980s, leading to numerous groundbreaking initiatives. The 4534-class Rocket System was a key feature of the ISA's commitment to pushing the limits of space travel. It was designed to transport both crewed and unmanned missions into Earth orbit, with a primary focus on exploration of Luna and Earth. The most notable mission was the launch of Imperial Lab 1 in 1981, which was the first orbital laboratory for the Shazbotdom Empire. The Lab 1 facilitated groundbreaking research that contributed to advancements in space technology and expanded our understanding of the universe. However, despite its remarkable contributions, the Lab 1 was unexpectedly decommissioned in 1985 after only 4 years into its 8 year mission.
