The Confederation of Dixie
Kings Bay became the Confederation of Dixie’s second space launch facility, but it would not be the last. Every other State started their own space agency in time, built their own launch facilities, and flew their own ships into space. But Kings Bay had the best training facilities. It turns out that the best way to train people for flying through space in a tin can is to put them in a tin can beneath the ocean. Long-term cruises under those conditions helped Georgia prepare crews for space, and many of the early Confederation crews trained at Kings Bay. The other States would eventually build their own training programs, but Kings Bay is still home to the best training program and space launch facility in the Confederation. In their opinion. Florida disagrees on both points, as one would expect.
