{{Spoiler Warning}} {{WIP}}

The '''United Nations Space Fleet''' (UNSF) is Earths primary ([[human]]) space exploration organisation depicted in the ''[[Starship Simulator]]'' universe. It operates humanity's first [[Alcubierre Drive|faster-than-light (FTL)]] capable vessels, such as the [[Magellan Class|Magellan Class]] [[UNSF Magellan]], with the goal of exploring the galaxy.

==UN Reformation==
By the late 2030s and early 2040s, the authority of the United Nations had entered a visible period of decline. Though its agencies continued to provide humanitarian aid, monitor elections, and coordinate relief efforts, the institution itself was increasingly viewed as incapable of responding to the scale of the crises unfolding around it. Rising sea levels, prolonged droughts, crop failures, and increasingly destructive storms displaced tens of millions of people across Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and parts of the Americas. These mass movements of refugees placed enormous strain on national borders and public services, fuelling political extremism, sectarian violence, and a resurgence of hardline nationalism across much of the world.

The Security Council, long criticised for its structure, became the clearest symbol of the UN’s paralysis. Repeated attempts to pass binding resolutions on refugee protections, emissions enforcement, maritime security, and emergency intervention were blocked by the competing interests of the permanent members. To much of the world, the veto had ceased to appear as a safeguard against reckless war and instead came to be seen as a mechanism by which powerful states protected themselves and their allies from meaningful accountability. The General Assembly continued to debate, condemn, and recommend, but without the power to compel action, its words increasingly rang hollow against images of burning coastlines, collapsing harvests, and overcrowded camps stretching across entire regions.

The breaking point came during the Crisis Decade of the 2040s. A convergence of extreme weather, global food price shocks, freshwater shortages, cyberattacks on key infrastructure, and several limited regional wars triggered the largest wave of displacement in recorded history. International supply chains fractured under the strain, piracy and insurgency surged along major trade routes, and a number of fragile states collapsed outright. In several widely publicised cases, relief corridors, peacekeeping deployments, and coordinated sanctions measures failed to materialise because veto-holding powers blocked or diluted proposed resolutions for reasons widely perceived as cynical and self-serving. Public confidence in the United Nations, already badly eroded, collapsed completely. Even among member states, a dangerous consensus began to form: the institution still existed, but it no longer governed events.

In response, a broad coalition of medium powers, climate-vulnerable nations, and heavily affected population blocs called for an emergency global constitutional congress outside the deadlocked framework of the Security Council. Although controversial, the gathering was justified as an act of preservation rather than revolution: a final attempt to save international cooperation by abandoning the mechanisms that had rendered it impotent. Over months of negotiation, delegates drafted what would become known as the New Geneva Charter, abolishing permanent veto privilege and replacing the old Security Council order with a unified General Assembly in which all member states voted as equals under a revised system of binding supermajority resolutions. The old United Nations was not formally destroyed so much as politically superseded; its institutions, agencies, and legal legacy were absorbed into a reformed body that claimed continuity with the original ideals of 1945 while rejecting the power structure that had undermined them.

Historians now generally regard the Reformation of the United Nations as one of the defining political events of the twenty-first century. It did not emerge from idealism, nor from any sudden moral awakening among the great powers, but from accumulated failure on a planetary scale. The lesson drawn by later generations was a bitter one: humanity did not unite at the first warning signs of collapse, nor at the second. It united only when the costs of division had become impossible to ignore. Yet from that failure emerged a more durable international order, one built not on the privileges of a few states, but on the recognition that the survival of civilisation itself could no longer be held hostage to national veto.

==Role and Mandate==
Operating in the mid-23rd century (around 2261 AD), the UNSF represents humanity's expansion into interstellar space following the invention of a viable FTL drive. Its primary mandate appears to be:
*'''Exploration:''' Charting unknown regions of the [[Milky Way]] galaxy beyond Earth's solar system.
*'''Scientific Research:''' Seeking out habitable worlds, conducting scientific surveys of stellar phenomena and planets, and analysing discovered artifacts or life forms.
*'''First Contact:''' Establishing peaceful relations with any alien civilizations encountered, requiring careful diplomacy.
*'''Data Gathering:''' Collecting information about the galaxy, potentially reporting back to the [[United Nations]] on Earth.

Based on developer comments and game role descriptions, the UNS-fleet operates under the direction of a body potentially named the '''United Nations Space Exploration Committee''', with its ships acting primarily as exploration or scout vessels. While exploration and science are the main focus, the presence of a Tactical Officer role suggests the UNSF is prepared for defensive measures if necessary.

==Known Assets==
*[[Magellan Class|Magellan Class]]: The first class of UNSF vessels equipped with FTL drives. At least two ships of this class, including the [[UNSF Magellan]], are suggested to exist early in the FTL era. These ships are large, multi-deck vessels designed for long-duration exploration missions with crews of over 200 personnel.

==Place in the Game==
In [[Starship Simulator]], players take on the role of a crew member serving aboard a UNSF vessel, usually the [[UNSF Magellan]]. They participate directly in the UNSF's mission by fulfilling their chosen crew role and by contributing to the operation and exploration goals of the ship.

==Development==

The idea around this version of the UN was based on the idea that the UN was dissolved and reformed into a new UN with a new structure. While not much information is finalised yet, some information can be found in YouTube streams and Discord channels.

[[Dan Govier]] has been quoted saying:

"One of the drivers for reforming the UN was its general impotence, and its inability to deal with global issues fairly due to vetos being used by major powers. We don't have an established date for the new charter yet, but let's put it forward enough that an orbital station for the UN headquarters is viable. I like the idea that, rather that being located in a member nation's territory, the UN seat of power oversees the entire planet. The general assembly room would absolutely need massive windows to give officials a proper global perspective when debating global issues. We want "general commuting" between Earth and orbital locations like the Moon to be commonplace in 2261, so an orbital station shouldn't be too much of a stretch for regular gathering etc. For the academy, I would prefer that be located on Earth because I like the idea of tutorial missions taking you through ground based lessons, and then transitioning to orbit via a shuttle, before finally boarding an actual vessel for the final tutorial steps. It should be all kinds of epic"

== Lore ==
The RM-84 model droid is designed to clean flooring on both starships and space stations. It is fully autonomous, returning to its charging and offloading station when required, and uses its AI to quickly and efficiently prioritise cleaning tasks.

== In Game ==
A single RM-84 unit can currently be found on B deck, but its operational area will be expanded in the future.

== Development History ==

RM-84 is due to be introduced in the 0.255 patch cycle.

== Trivia ==
The RM-84 model number is a play on the word "Roomba".
