The Dayashinese Association Space Agency is an intergovernmental organisation consisting of 5 member states with the purpose of space exploration and experimentation. The organisation was formed under the framework of the Dayashinese Association and is the direct descendent of the Dayashinese Aerospace Exploration Agency (DAXA) and Hanhae Space Agency (HSA), which merged together in conjunction with budding space programmes in Shijuku and Sundan to form DASA. A'olafa was invited to DASA by default given the presence of DAXA launch infrastructure in the country.
DASA's organisational objectives and areas of study included human spaceflight, manned and unmanned exploration of planetary bodies, Earth studies, astrophysics, and the space colonisation. DASA has been responsible for all manned spaceflight operations of its constituent countries since its establishment, including the Fukurokuju moon landing missions, the international space station, and the ongoing Project Daikokuten. DASA also accounts for most of the unmanned spaceflight operations of its constituent countries, such as rover landings, deep space probes, space telescopes, and satellite maintenance.
DASA also fulfills the spacefaring requirements for other nations, such as Ostland and Kerenevoi, which use its launch facilities to put up and maintain satellite networks alongside hosting astronauts. Additionally, DASA works closely with the private space company Meira for many purposes, including research, development, and construction of rockets, satellites, and other space vehicles.
