− | Whistler Orbital Services was founded in 2009 when the [[Toy Box]] launched into orbit from Germany. | + | |
− | | + | |
− | Within one month of operation Danni Koslowski, a former employee of EADS Astrium, aquired the first long term salvage and satellite maintenance contracts with SES Astra, marking the beginning of the actual operation of Whistler Orbital Services.

− | | + | |
− | As [[Stellvia]] happened to be 'out of the way' from the primary operation area of the [[Toy Box]] it was decided to build a station, named [[KA Preiswert]] in Semi-synchronous earth orbit.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Until 2011 Whistler acquired further large maintenance contracts with Eutelsat S.A. and Hughes Communications, and minor salvage contracts and good relations with various national space organisations.

− | Usually any salvage that is obtained during normal operations is refurbished and sold to various fen and factions, while other salvage is shipped to clients.

− | While nominally unaligned with [[Great Justice|Operation Great Justice]] during the [[Boskone War]] the [[Toy Box|SS Toy Box]] and other Whistler craft rescued several stranded spacecraft pilots and larger space ships, increasing the standing with most factions. Only a Boskone attack on the [[Toy Box]] in the late stages of the war caused Whistler to align with [[Great Justice]].

− | Whistler Orbital Services is mainly aligned with a small Pulper faction, the [[Rhodanites]].
