Norssohn Aeronautics and Space Academy

The Norssohn Aeronautics and Space Academy or NASA was an academy established around 9 ABY on Orupia. 
Founded at the former Imperial fortitude of Normaic Base, the location was redeveloped in partnership by Stargazing Shipyards Inc and the Orupian Royal Court in an effort to establish the first Space Academy of its type on Orupia. The purpose of the Academy is the training of crew to operate spacecraft, qualifying starfighter pilots, transport pilots and frigate pilots as well as combat navigators, transport navigators and to a lesser extent provides sensory, communications and space traffic control training. 
NASA also held more advanced courses in the the study, design, and manufacturing of flight-capable machines in partnership with Oru-Tekk Engineering, and NASA science is focused on better understanding Orupia through the Home Observing System, exploring bodies throughout the Sega System, and researching astrophysics topics through the Great Observatories that were established along the Normaic beach.
The Academy was built following the destruction of the Norssohn Space Academy on Chandrila in 8 ABY. The second academy maintained it's former staff, was again named in honour of Bai'yle Norssohn, and partly funded by the profits from the sales of the BN-1 Nub-Wing Interceptor which was designed by Norssohn and produced by Stargazing Shipyards Inc.
The first class of pilots enrolled at the Academy were volunteers trained specifically for Orupia's Royal Orupian Space Elite-Wing.
