Space Exploration

The nation claims to be one of the first micronations to develop and successfully launch a reusable rocket. This is a result of research and development by the Berry Empire Space & Telemetry organization.

Blueberry (Rocket)

Formerly known as Berry-1, the rocket was developed by Berry Empire Space & Telemetry. The unsuccessful first launch of the rocket was followed by a second, successful, launch that took place on August 13, 2021.[7] Blueberry managed to perform a supersonic shock shortly after it's launch. The rocket is missing as it landed on an unknown, most likely foreign territory.

Mulberry (Rocket)

Formerly known as Berry-2, the rocket was developed by Berry Empire Space & Telemetry. The launch of Mulberry was successful.

Cloudberry (Upcoming rocket)

Cloudberry is an upcoming rocket being developed by Berry Empire Space & Telemetry.[8]
