The International Student Space Simulation (ISSS) was an international organization of high school programs that conducted simultaneous Space Simulation missions each year. Students were involved in the United States, Canada, Japan, and Russia.
Students from Lisgar Collegiate first became involved with Space Simulation when a group of students were invited to participate at a mission in Florida in 1989. There were three exchanges until 1991. At this point, students from Lisgar presented the Ottawa Board of Education with a proposal to build their own Lunar Habitat and conduct their own annual mission. This formed the Ottawa Board of Education Space Simulation (OBESS).
Over time, the participating schools in the ISSS lost interest. The OBESS, however, retained contact with its sister-mission site in Lexington, South Carolina.
