George A Loak Memorial Space Center
In the 1980s, the George A. Loak Memorial Space Center was tasked with the monumental mission of launching the Shazbotdom Empire into orbit. This ambitious undertaking required meticulous planning, rigorous testing, and unwavering dedication. The center's engineers worked tirelessly to design a spacecraft capable of withstanding the extreme conditions of space travel and successfully achieving orbit.
The launch of the Shazbotdom Empire was a momentous occasion, marking the first time that the center had successfully sent a manned mission into space. It was a testament to the center's capabilities and its commitment to pushing the boundaries of space exploration. The mission not only brought glory to the Shazbotdom Empire but also showcased the technological prowess of the George A. Loak Memorial Space Center.
Since the 1980s, the George A. Loak Memorial Space Center has continued to be at the forefront of space exploration. Its utilization has expanded beyond the Shazbotdom Empire and has encompassed a wide range of scientific endeavors. The center has been involved in various missions, including satellite launches, interplanetary exploration, and scientific research.
One of the key factors contributing to the center's success is its commitment to innovation. The scientists and engineers at the George A. Loak Memorial Space Center are constantly pushing the boundaries of technology, developing new spacecraft, propulsion systems, and instruments to further our understanding of the universe.
The center's cutting-edge research and development have led to significant breakthroughs in space exploration. It has played a crucial role in advancing our understanding of the cosmos, discovering new celestial bodies, and unraveling the mysteries of the universe. The data collected by the center's missions has contributed to numerous scientific publications and has been instrumental in shaping our knowledge of space.
Furthermore, the George A. Loak Memorial Space Center has also been actively involved in international collaborations. It has collaborated with space agencies from around the world, sharing knowledge, expertise, and resources to further our collective understanding of space. This collaboration has fostered a spirit of cooperation and has accelerated advancements in space exploration.
Launch Complex 1
This Facility has completed its referbishment and is back in operation as a fully operational Launch Facility for Orbital Launches.
For some notable events, this facility launched the mission from the incident on the 24th of December in 2004 when the boosters and tank separated from the shuttle, causing it to come down, and crash land at the local airport and into the neighborhood, causing the largest AeroSpace death toll in Imperial History.

Launch Complex 2
Fully Functional Launch Facility. This facility is fully updated to host the full contingent of launch platforms for the Shazbotdom Empire.
Launch Complex 3
Launch Complex 3 was utilized as the primary SubOrbital test pad for all new technology. This was due to it being at a point where it has a lightening protection system and engineers and support staff can easily go out to the complex to work on rockets either right before a sub-orbital test, right after the test is completed, or during a hold in launch processes to ensure that the rocket system is functioning properly. This Launch Complex was Decommissioned for SubOrbital Test Flights on the 2nd of January, 2023, after the SubOrbital Testing Facility became fully operational. All SubOrbital test flights will now occur at the new facility.
As of the 3rd of July, 2023, LC 3 has been ReChristened as a Orbital Launch Facility after extensive refirbishment.

Launch Complex 4
Launch Complex 4 was utilizes as one of the three Orbital Complexes. With the three orbital Complexes being the furthest from the VAB, these complexes feature an advanced Lightening Protection System, designed so that the ship can be brought out 1 to 3 days in advance, prepped for launch, and then held there until the day of the launch, where it will then be fueled up on the pad before launching. LC-4 has historical significance as it was the complex where the Imperial Lab 1 Mission launched from back on the 9th of July, 1984.
Launch Complex 5
Launch Complex 5 was utilized as one of the three Orbital Complexes. With the three orbital Complexes being the furthest from the VAB, these complexes feature an advanced Lightening Protection System, designed so that the ship can be brought out 1 to 3 days in advance, prepped for launch, and then held there until the day of the launch, where it will then be fueled up on the pad before launching. LC-5 has historical significance as it was the complex where the Imperial Lab 2 Mission launched from back on the 28th of March, 1987.
Launch Complex 6
Launch Complex 6 was utilized as one of the three Orbital Complexes. With the three orbital Complexes being the furthest from the VAB, these complexes feature an advanced lightening protection system, designed so that the ship can be brought out 1 to 3 days in advance, prepped for launch, and then held there until the day of the launch, where it will then be fueled up on the pad before launching. LC-6 has historical significance as it was the complex where the 1st Space Shuttle style system was launched from, taking flight from this complex on the 29th of November, 1994.
Launch Complex 7
A New Launch Pad at the far Southern end of the George A. Loak Memorial Space Center. This facility began being constructed on the 17th of May, 2023 when ground flattening commenced. After all the construction was completed, it underwent a barrage of Static Fire Testing utilizing the Zeta-class v2 Hot Swappable Testing Boosters with varried engines attached to them. The Complex was cleared for Orbital Launches on the 4th of August, 2023 after the Launch Complex Integrity Council looked over all the information from these Static Fire Tests and saw no degredation of the complex during the testing.
Launch Complex 8
A New Launch Pad that is fully operational at the Eastern end of the George A. Loak Memorial Space Center. This facility first broke ground for Construction on the 28th of May, 2023. After several months of construction on the project, the first Pilings began being drilled into the ground on the 26th of June of the same year. in July, construction was nearly complete and the Static Fire testing of the integrity of the pad was completed on the 30th of July. On August 15th, the Pad was granted operational capacity for all Orbital Flights.
Launch Complex 9
A New Launch Pad at the Eastern end of the George A. Loak Memorial Space Center. The Imperial Space Administration broke ground on the new facility on the 10th of June, with Ground Flattening to have commenced 5 days later. Over the course of the next month, work progressed on the Launch Pad and the surrounding Ground Support Equipment Pipework until the 24th of July, when they began to pour the Concrete that would be utilized for the actual pad. The concrete pouring equipment saw failures near the 10th of August, delays occurred and the pouring wasn't finished until the 23rd of August. The pad was cleared on the 3rd of September, 2023 for operations.
