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 (BBoS), 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.
+
The wiki is a useful source for information about [[Sim Lore]], [[List of Members|members]], and many other weird and wonderful things. However, it is an undiscovered resource to be tapped into. Various commanders and webmasters over the history of Sapcesim, each with their own system of organization, have added valuable knowledge over the years. The result, lots of interesting and valuable information with no system to document and organize it.
  
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.

Rediscovering and organizing the various documents on the wiki is a great adventure that will continue eternally.
  
This is the one way we will be able to preserve the memory of Spacesim forever, so stop procrastinating and DO SOMETHING!

A great place to start in keeping our wiki organized is to have updated member pages for all members. If you don't have a member page on the wiki, you should either create one yourself, or contact the current [[Webmaster]] or [[Education Commander]].

Welcome to the Ottawa Carleton Educational Space Simulation Wiki.

Introduction

Commonly known as Spacesim, the OCESS is a non-profit organisation dedicated to learning and teaching about Space, Space Science, and Space Exploration.

The wiki is a useful source for information about Sim Lore, members, and many other weird and wonderful things. However, it is an undiscovered resource to be tapped into. Various commanders and webmasters over the history of Sapcesim, each with their own system of organization, have added valuable knowledge over the years. The result, lots of interesting and valuable information with no system to document and organize it.

Rediscovering and organizing the various documents on the wiki is a great adventure that will continue eternally.

A great place to start in keeping our wiki organized is to have updated member pages for all members. If you don't have a member page on the wiki, you should either create one yourself, or contact the current Webmaster or Education Commander.

Keeping the procedures and other documents on the wiki updated will allow us to use it as a source during missions. If you would like to help us out in organizing this great archive. Let your current Webmaster know.

This is the one way we will be able to preserve the memory of Spacesim forever, so start sharing your knowledge with the current and future members of OCESS.

Enjoy!
