This isnt spam or anything. I just want to see who would be interested and get any feed back people may have regarding this.
I am Kaimoni Sutton. I run an online Virtual Space agency. But before you go and say its childish, let me explain what we do and who we work with. My space agency called the Virtual United States Space Program has been in operation for about 3 years, REALISTICLY simulating space operations using a number of freeware programs which in my opinion should totally be payware. We have a few close ties to NASA as we work with a couple of its employees, and future employees, including people who are studying in the fields of aviation, nuclear physics and things of that nature. We also work with an aircraft design company that is currently doing business with the Boeing company (they are buying one of their designs i believe, but dont quote me on that just yet). They have designed us spacecraft that if build in real life, would fly, but for our purposes, they will be made for simulations using 'Orbiter', the space simulator program we use.
Over the past couple years we have simulated OVER 30 unmanned space missions. A vast majority of the missions were earth based, however, we have sent probes to study the sun, and the moon. We have sent our astronauts to the moon, and are working dilligently to send a manned crew to mars by 2005. We have set up a space station which assembly started on back in April of 03', and we are beginning our program to send men BACK to the moon in preparation for the mars missions (we need to test out our theories and ideas as well as test long duration mission, something like nasa is going to do in the imminent futute, except we beat them to the concept lol- we have been planning this for at least a year).
The VUSSP is a non-profit organization and we do teach everyone what they need to know to do thier jobs, whether they be a mission controller, an astronuat, or an director running a division. As i said we do train with nasa mission controllers so what we do is legit and real, to a point obviously. If anyone is interested in finding out more you can visit our website at http://www.vussp.com or leave a post here.
Here is an old picture of one of the spacecraft successfully launched on Saturday February 7, 2003 at 12 pm EST:
Heres another picture of a rocket launched prior to the one above:
