The Air Force command will now be responsible, in addition to their already assigned responsibility, for space exploration. To that extent, vehicles for launching satellites and people into space will be designed and constructed. This is not a solely military operation. It will also be commercial and humanitarian. The different types of satellites to be put into space will be: - astronomical satellites
- communication satellites
- navigation satellites
- earth observation satellites (non-military)
- reconnaissance satellites (military)
- weather satellites

The sixth launch (number: IMESL 6) was unsuccessful. The satellite failed to set in orbit and was self-destructed. A study is authorized to discover and correct the reasons that lead to the failure.

The Empire has determined the problem that caused one of the satellites on launch number IMESL 8 to fail to be related to loss of on board fuel due to a leak and wrongly produced ring part in the fuel delivery system.
The Empire would also like to announce a secondary launch that took place in secret to avoid leaks in case of failure. Luckily, there was no need for such as the Empire was successful in its very first attempt. The launch took place in the early morning and put a space shuttle into orbit for 2 orbits before bringing it back down safely at Sidious airport. The space shuttle is a new space vehicle called I-Wing. This particular first model is nicknamed Lucas to give tribute to those who gave us a whole new world to play with.

The Empire launched Lucas into orbit once more and managed to bring it back safely. This time it carried a total of 8 small satellites. Due to the extreme convenience of multi-orbit deployment of satellites and the large number of satellites that were deployed on one mission, the Empire has authorized the construction of two more space shuttles of the I-Wing type.

The Empire launched Lucas into outer orbit for the first time. Its mission was to deploy six satellites midway between Tarsica and Micras. These six satellites would then travel towards Tarsica and set themselves into a Tarsica-synchronous orbit. The Empire is pleased to announce that the mission had been successful.

The Empire has received a brand new I-Wing shuttlecraft and has named it Foster. Foster's first mission was to deploy 7 satellites to orbit and test some new functionality out. While the Empire has temporarily put the acquisition and construction of the third shuttlecraft on hold, the Empire does insist that the space program is still on schedule. The expected Tarsica landing date is on the next launch.
