Welcome to the Ottawa Carleton Educational Space Simulation Wiki.
Commonly known as Spacesim, the OCESS is a non-profit organisation dedicated to learning and teaching about Space, Space Science, and Space Exploration.
This Wiki is designed to replace the Big Book of Sim, which was an endeavour to capture the history of Spacesim in an easily readable format. By using the Wiki system, we hope to encourage alumni of Spacesim to drop in and give their two cents' worth on Sim History and Sim Lore.
Now that the Wiki has some content, it should not be ignored as an important source of information on Spacesim's history, procedures, and lore. However, it should not be regarded as static, and in fact, you are all encouraged to add articles about anything remotely related to Spacesim. Don't forget to clean up currently existing articles, and add content to all those that are underwritten.
This is the one way we will be able to preserve the memory of Spacesim forever, so stop procrastinating and DO SOMETHING!
Enjoy!

Please work on these articles preferentially. Our future members, the Wiki Task Force, and anyone who wants to learn about Spacesim certainly appreciate any editing you do. Our Lore is the product of smart people selected by common interest; it is rich, it is old, and it deserves to be known. But the most important facts about Spacesim, about previous missions and years, about how we learn and teach about space, can all be found on the pages for years, for procedures and for various rooms within the Hawking III, our habitat. This wiki is for public outreach and for preserving the most important parts of Sim Culture, so let's make it as complete and as rife with facts as we can!
