The Virtuan Alliance Republic Space Exploration & Exploitation committee, or VARSEEC for short, is a space agency built by the VAR in 2014. There goal is to acquire both land and assets from deep space. This has led to multiple scientific and engineering feats in the past. The VAR has developed a space rocket called "Dark orbit II", a medium sized rocket for space exploration and warfare. The VAR has used a few test rockets before but each time they try, it fails. Leading many Virtuan citizens to believe that either neglect or foul play are involved.
first launch
On April 15, 2015, the VARSEEC send out their first sub orbit probe into the sky, dubbed "Quick Zap" the probe would use lightning rods to attract lightning and record electrical data.
There was also a battery charger attached to the probes wires to see how much battery charge, a
lightning strike could deal. But unfortunately the outcome was disastrous, without warning
10 minutes after launch, a bolt of dark lightning hit the probe and the battery shorted out, all data
lost and the probe was not recovered. Black lightning is incredibly rare and instead of just electrical
charges being sent down, there are huge doses of radiation.
