That is quite interesting and very expansive, I’ll be sure to give it a read when I get the chance.

Does anyone play KSP with the Real Solar System and Realism Overhaul mods? I made a summary factbook for my space agency (HASDA):

The space program of Hatsunia began in 1952 with the Negi series of suborbital sounding rockets launched from Negishima Space Center in Minamikushi Prefecture. Professor Hidemi Utagawa led rocket engineering efforts at the time, while rockets were manufactured by Mikubishi Heavy Industries. After the launch of the first satellite Sputnik by the Soviet Union, the Hatsunia Aerospace Science and Development Agency (HASDA) was established on 1958-10-19. The agency launched its first satellite, HATSUNE (High Altitude Test Satellite Utilization Near Earth), on a Negi-2B rocket on 1960-08-31. Afterwards, Mikubishi would develop the M-1 rocket derived from American Thor missile technology.

Being part of the victorious Allies in WWII meant that Hatsunia's aerospace industry was not Linkrestricted by treaties. Hatsunia's industrial base had remained intact after the war, although it did not have as much resources as the USSR or US. Therefore, it initially did not participate in the race to send humans to the Moon. Instead, HASDA would primarily focus its budget on exploring the Solar System with robotic probes, as well as creating communications networks and observing Earth. HASDA's first astronaut, Yuzuki Morita, was launched in the Utahime space capsule on a M-1A rocket on 1970-09-12. Investment into the space program also Linkmotivated the development of the computing industry.

As of 1989, the probes of HASDA have orbited and landed on the Moon, Mars (and its moons), and LinkVenus, orbited Jupiter, and flew by Mercury, Saturn, Uranus, and Halley's Comet. The crewed Saki spacecraft had also been introduced (a flat capsule for 3 people shaped like the mountain it is named after) in this decade, while Hatsunia's first prototype space station "Yume" launched just recently. The workhorse launch vehicles at the time were the larger M-2 and M-2A rockets and the smaller M-1B rocket.

HASDA would later construct the space station Mirai in the 1990s. After the development of the partially reusable vertical-landing rocket M-3 to reduce launch costs, it would eventually launch its first crewed mission to the Moon (Kaguyahime-01) in 2001, more affordably compared to NASA's Apollo missions. By 2007, an even larger and fully-reusable rocket known as Mikumaru would be developed. This would lower launch costs significantly such that a crewed Mars mission could be performed, and larger Linkspace stations as well as Linklunar bases would be built by the end of the 2010s, with over a million people visiting space Linkevery year.
