However, the primary purpose of Soaring Eagle was to accomplish a lunar landing. Although Soaring Eagle was officially started in September of 2460, the grounds for it had been worked on from 2456 onwards, with a man being launched into space in 2459. The set goal was a fully attempted landing in 2464, which would have beaten the International City's efforts by several months, it was extremely possible with the CNIC's extensive budget of $45B. Unfortunately internal constraints between bickering Financial Board committees from 2460-63 would lead to the KEK's program grinding to an utter halt. The result would be a 5:1 vote in favour of blocking Douglas Nimroy from any decision making processes within all Conglomerate companies, effectively rendering the position of Chief Executive President worthless. During the 2470s after Nimroy seized control over the company once more after backing from the Tarasovite government, numerous journalists have promoted the idea that it was a personal favour from Georgiy Tarasov to Nimroy. As a result the program was rekindled in 2475 and the program was essentially factory reset, by 2480 several chimps and Humans were sent into orbit once more, and on February 2 of 2484 the moon landing would be accomplished with astronauts Danny Suns, Brandy Philips, Hank Howards, Daniel Vegas and Rupert Kirk (who would remain in the command module). During the late 2470s the draw plans for another program would begin, Project Duality, which primarily served as a space colonisation mission and mass improvement of safety standards and rocket efficiency. Starscreechers, Douglas spin stations, lunar colonies, Adelfi orbital satellites and other important creations would be developed by this program. The two primary concoctions from this program as of 2499 have been the CNV McConaughey, which went through well over a decade and a-half of development, a fifty man 65m diameter two-wheeled spin station, powered by a nuclear reactor and containing multiple scientific and civilian facilities. The other creation has been the equally significant Ceironian Lunar Facility, also fission reliant, it allows for a similar number inhabitants as the spin station, and contains industrial facilities, which are planned to be expanded to allow for non-CNIC companies to exploit the lunar surface, similar to the IC's moon colony.
Future projects include the Starscreechers IIb project, wherein the entire rocket is able to vertically touchdown via powered landings, which is predicted to be a far better alternative to the questionable gliding, parachute and helicopter acquisition systems currently in place. The Enterprise Program, which has the goal of producing all-purpose intrasolar SSTO space shuttles equipped with an encircling spin station, destined to reach the orbits of Adelfi, the asteroid belt and other planets and moons with a crew of up to twelve astronauts. Starnet, an extensive satellite network which will provide internet to the masses, however this will most likely be shelved due to the cost being uneconomical at the current time period. Other ideas include the eventual acquisition of asteroids to be
