ABOUT The Launch System

The Shazbotdom Imperial Space Administration, after a large contract that was to launch multiple sattelites into Heliocentric Orbit, began the design of what was to become the HLS. This Launch System is designed so that the Empire can launch satellites and other payloads into High Earth Orbit and out of Earth's Orbit. As of right now, there are 2 Stages, with the Second Stage currently having 4 different types in operation while a 5th and 6th are in planning/testing phases.

The Zeta-class 1st Stage

The First Stage Zeta-class Booster is the main Heavy Lift vehicle for the new Heavy Launch System. The Version 1 (v1) configuration is the version utilized for Active Missions while the Version 2 (v2) is the version that has been built by the Engine Propulsion Laboratory and is designed to be hot swappable and will only be utilized for SubOrbital Testing of new engine deigns.

2nd Stage Boosters

The Second Stage Boosters are the primary Payload Delivery Systems for the the Heavy Lift System.

Block 1 - Alpha-class

The Second Stage Block 1 Alpha-class Booster is specifically designed to deliver deliver multiple smaller Satellites into Low Earth or High Earth Orbit and return to Earth with little to no effort. The system has been setup to either deliver 4 or 6 Satellites, but can, with alterations, deliver up to 8 Satellites. This system has, to the point, only been utilized to deploy Satellites for Shazbotdom News Corporation.

Future plans for this booster include the creation of a communication system for any future Lunar missions and for the inevitable creation of the Lunar Colonial Posession. To ensure that no matter what direction the moon is pointing, the Lunar Colony will continue to have communications capabilities with the Imperial Space Administration. Plans for this communication system between Earth and Luna are still in the preliminary phase, but these plans are progressing quickly.

Block 2 - Omicron-class

The Second Stage Block 2 Omicron-class Booster is specifically designed to deliver deliver Large satellites or other large payloads into High Earth Orbit and return to Earth with little to no effort. The boosters nose cone fairing system has changed over the course of the last 6 months since the system went operational, this is to ensure less drag on ascent into orbit, ensuring that any cargo inside of the Fairing does not overheat and get damaged beyond repair. This new fairing is being utilized on the Stage 2 Block 3 Booster as well.

This Booster's main purpose, for the time being, is to continue to support the creation of the Large Orbital Space Station. It is set to deliver larger parts to the space station as the contruction of the station continues into the future. Other missions that it would be applicable for will be for the deployment of larger scientific satellites for foreign entities as well as larger communication satellites for private enterprises.

Block 3 - Theta-class

The Second Stage Block 3 Theta-class Booster is specifically designed to deliver deliver Large Satellites or other Large Payloads into Heliocentric Orbit and return to Earth with little to no effort. The SSB Block 3 was specifically designed after the signing of the contract with the PATHOS Foundation for the launch of their 81 Sattelites.

Block 4 - Kappa-class

The 2nd Stage Block 4 Kappa-class Booster is the Human Transport System variant of the HLS 2nd Stage Boosters. It's design is for the transportation of up to 150 civilians for the colonization of the solar system. This stage will be utilized in conjuction with the High Altitude Transfer Station, which will have a section dedicated to the manufacture of fuel for the missions.

Block 5 - Iota-class

The 2nd Stage Block 5 Iota-class Booster is planned to be the intra-planetary Refueling system for the Second Stage Block 4 Booster. This booster system is to be placed at strategic points that are to be determined to ensure that the Second Stage Block 4 Booster will be able to make the full trip from Earth to all points in the solar system, ensuring that Humanity can reach the distant worlds of our solar system for human colonization.

Block 6 - Rho-class

The 2nd Stage Block 6 Rho-class Booster is the Rover Delivery System. It's main purpose is to deliver unmanned Rovers to Lunar surfaces of both Luna as well as the varied Moons throughout the solar system, to begin to learn and understand these celestial bodies throughout our Solar System.

As of right now, there are a total of 10 of these Boosters completed, with the possibility of more at a later date. Rho-1 performed its SubOrbital test flight on the 16th of January, 2023 and has passed with high marks on all segments of the SubOrbital Test Flight.
