Does your nation have a Space Agency / Space Program?

I'm just curious here, since the following question may come up next week. ;) Also, I'm not limited this to manned space or even space travel. National programs researching the space sciences would certainly be of interest as well.

I am currently using the original Felraian space colonies, which have long since been abandoned and left to rot, for various testing. I bet that counts as something.

Not to be rude (though that may seem to be a first), how does this apply to the UN?

The next resolution in the queue should concern space sciences. I was hoping that when the resolution hits the floor that I could point to this thread as informal evidence that our nations are already doing the related work.

I also plan to recap all prior UN resolutions that involve space sciences and bring links to one prior debate that I feel is relevant.

So to answer your question, you could say I'm attempting to generate support for my resolution by generating interest. :)

Yes. It's called the Letilan Space Program.

the DSH has long held a presence in orbit - several manned and unmanned orbital platforms (some civilian, some not) are in geostationary orbit above the DSH. Others are variously scattered over the globe.

The DSH has already expressed it's intent to contribute resources currently used to study orbital phonomenon towards ttracking and discovering NEO's
