The Cross Pacific Space Cooperation (CPSC) is an intergovernmental organisation that coordinates and promotes space research and technology. The purpose is to achieve together what the member states would not be able to do on their own. The CPSC was founded after the Great War when Ryccia and Sedunn decided to continue their joint rocket development program, but in a purely civilian form. In 1957 the other democracies on the continents around the South Pacific Ocean were invited to join.

The headquarters are located in Grovne, Sedunn. The primary spaceport is located in Juno, Ryccia, due to its proximity to the equator, and a back-up launch site is located in Hazelbrust near its eastern border (used extensively during the Ryccian Civil Wars). A smaller, secondary launch site is located outside Sraved, Vastraenn, Sedunn.
