The ARSB has begun setting up a limited space program, utilizing a single American-designed space shuttle as a test-bed. The space shuttle we will use was purchased long ago and has sat in storage for the past few (NS) years. After a few initial flights for training and testing purposes, we will begin utilizing the space shuttle for limited research and repairing some of our aging satellites already in orbit. After this initial phase is deemed successful and complete, we will begin construction on two planned shuttles, designed completely by our own scientists and engineers and having no relation at all with the American space shuttle. When the two new-model shuttles are built, the older shuttle will either be put in storage, a museum, scrapped, or used solely for repairing satellites.
