Imperial Space Agency

The Impeiral Space Agency (Kaiserliche Weltraumorganisation – German) is the Department in the Tirnreich's Ministry of Transportation that maintains and develops vehicles and technology that are used for space travel and exploration.

History
Tirnlanders in space agencies are somewhat of a relatively new happening. Prior to the 1990's, very few Tirnlanders had pursued careers in astrophysics or rocket science, lending only two pre-1990's Tirnlander space minds: Dr. Gordon Levrik and Dr. Jarmir Prozwowski. Both of these men worked in assistent capacities to the Soviet space agencies, and were mainly used as quality assurance personnel and consultants.

In 1993, after the fall of the Soviet Union, Roscosmos, the new Russian Space Agency, had hired several dozen Tirnlanders onto its space program. Many of them, including cosmodrome foreman Alan Tymanov, stayed on the program until the independence of the Tirnreich.

By 2010, as the Tirnreich was developing ballistic missiles in its Program for Ballistic Missiles program, many space-applicable discoveries were made. As the Tirnreich only had minimal developmental experience in spacecraft construction, and as they were over 40 years behind many comparable countries, the Minister of Transportation at the time, Corbin Holbaek, announced the creation of the Imperial Space Agency.
