Not to be confused with the Alina Space Administration on Survival 4

The Dogcraft Space Association (DSA) was a large rocket launch complex and airfield built by EllenNL on the Survival 1 world of the Dogcraft Server. The DSA contained a detailed and elaborately decorated airfield, hangar, launch pad with service structure, replica Space Shuttle attached to launch rocket, and an administration building; all explorable with fully designed interiors.

Considered one of the more memorable and acclaimed set-pieces of the first survival world, the DSA—situated far north-west of spawn—was served by its' own eponymous Nether Transport Network station, connected by a purpose-built junction (Northern Star Station). The build was toured by ReNDoG in a base tour video, uploaded on the 13^th of December, 2016.

The build featured a number of structures, all with fully modelled interiors. The base was built atop a flattened hardened clay (terracotta) platform, illuminated by embedded ground lighting to prevent monster spawning at night.

The launch pad and service structure, with mounted Space Shuttle affixed to its' external tank and rocket boosters. The service structure featured a ladder and piston access doors to allow entry to the shuttle, which could be climbed and explored.
The administration building, with a control room, conference room and offices. The control room featured replica banner flags of several countries, a large black screen, various control panels, and seats for mission personnel. The conference room featured a large dark-oak desk.
The hangar, containing a small replica jet and storage boxes.
An airfield with a runway for takeoff. A number of support vehicles could be found dotted on the airfield.
