Welcome to World Space Alliance

Welcome at the website of World Space Alliance (WSA).

WSA is a virtual space alliance that plans to virtually rebuild the International Space Station (ISS).
Two countries are committed for this task: USA and Russian Federation. (In real-life, there are two players for the whole operation. One will coordinate the USA operations and the other will coordinate Russian Federation.)

The space agency of the USA is called National Agency for Space Research Activities (NASRA) which will mainly use the Space Shuttle Orbiter to launch modules, crew and equipment to the ISS.

The Russian space agency is called Russian Space Science Agency (RSSA). They will use the Soyuz launcher to launch payloads to space, the TM(A) vehicles to carry crew to the ISS for long duration stay, the Progress vessel to fly equipment and resources to the ISS and the Proton launcher to deliver heavy payloads into orbit like the ISS core, Zarya.

This will be the place where you can find out updates about WSA operations, mainly by press releases of the two agencies. Welcome aboard!
